Chapter 267: Discuss the strategy of going south

Wang next to the Hou Shuxian, fold Kejun, Chen Kang called to a place, after introducing each other to sit down, he told a few people about his trip to the south to find the book, it turned out that the king next to the trip was entrusted by the prime minister, everyone was very surprised, especially Chen Kang, I couldn't imagine that he sent the book to the right person, but how to hand over this book, must not put the responsibility on the head of the prime minister who compiled the book, that is not to find their own bad luck,

Next, Wang Ben asked Chen Kang to tell the origin of these books, and Zhi Kejun was dumbfounded when he heard this, even Hou Shuxian frowned, feeling that this matter was not trivial, and explained the reason for the trip to the south clearly, and then came the question of Zhao Zhongzhen, and Wang asked Zhi Kejun to talk about how he brought Zhao Zhongzhen to Linchuan,

It turned out that Zhe Kejun and others planned to return to Yanzhou for the New Year and then come back, who knew that there were frequent wars at the border passes, and the emperor Li Liangzuo sent troops to harass Jingzhou and Yuanzhou on Qinfeng Road, and the emperor sent Wang Wuji, the deputy envoy of Wensi, to envoy to Western Xia, and sent an edict to stop Li Liangzuo, but Langzuo refused to accept the emperor's edict, they were worried about the safety of their families, and at the same time worried that the emperor would temporarily send Wang Fang to the front line, and hurriedly rushed back to the capital with his family; After arriving in the capital, I heard that Mr. Lu said that the itinerary next to the king had not changed, but he would stay in Linchuan for a month, so he rushed to Linchuan, and when they went out of the city, they met Zhao Zhongzhen who went out of the city without permission, and they must go with them.

Wang Jian didn't think for a long time after listening to this, he said: "Li Liangzuo, this kid, this time is not a simple harassment, Jingzhou and Yuanzhou on Qin Feng Road are very close to the Haoshuichuan battlefield where Li Yuanhao sent troops to defeat the Song army, if he takes these places, Qin Feng Road will have no strong passes to defend." ”

Hou Shuxian shook his head slightly, "Childe, the matter of Western Xia's attack on Qin Fenglu may not have taken a turn for the better, and it is not a top priority. ”

Wang Fang didn't want Li Liangzuo and Da Song to really go to war, his own business was only one aspect, on the other hand, once the war started, it would not be beneficial to both countries, not to mention that he didn't hate Li Liangzuo in his heart, and when he heard Hou Shuxian say this, he hurriedly asked: "What does Mr. Hou mean." ”

"If I'm not mistaken, when Gongzi sent an envoy to Western Xia, Li Liangzuo had a discussion alliance with the Great Song Dynasty, after the new emperor Yingzong ascended the throne, the discussion has not been going too smoothly, and the prince resigned from his official position, presumably Li Liangzuo did not convince him in the Great Song Dynasty, so he repeatedly sent troops, as for why he wanted to go near and far this time, not to fight the Yongxing Military Road, but to harass Qin Fenglu, presumably there are places in Yanzhou and other places that he is unwilling to violate."

Wang Bi still agrees with Hou Shuxian's analysis, and he himself thought of it: "Mr. Hou is right, Li Liangzuo has always had the idea of invading the Song Dynasty, but when he first ascended the throne, the foundation was unstable, although the Western Xia occupied the best geographical advantages, but did not occupy the time, the trade between the two countries is also to enhance the national strength economically, and now that the new emperor of the Great Song Dynasty has ascended the throne, Yingzong wants to break the discussion again, and Li Liangzuo is the age of blood and strength, so he will naturally not let go of this opportunity, but I still think that as long as the Liao State does not cause trouble in the north at this time, The current strength of Western Xia is not enough to fear. ”

"What Gongzi said is very true, since the imperial court has issued an edict, the matter of Western Xia will wait and see what will happen for the time being, not to mention that it is not excluded here that the border generals did it deliberately, and it is normal for some small frictions on the border between the two countries, and now the people in the DPRK and China are unstable because of the Pu discussion, and the officials have different political views, so it is inevitable that someone will be deposed, and there are some small things on the border at this time, just enough to divert attention."

"That's right." Wang's eyes lit up: "Even if it wasn't for the border generals, then Li Liangzuo may not be honest, he tossed like this, and the focus of the DPRK and China was shifted to the Song and Xia borders, maybe he also made the ministers angry and increased cohesion, but this is always misfired, but the people on the border suffered." ”

"Misfire." Hou Shuxian frowned,

Wang next to the smile: "This is the art of war and tactics ......" he said in his heart, this Mr. Hou is very knowledgeable, and he analyzes things quite well, I hope he doesn't understand the art of war,

Hou Shuxian really admired: "The son still knows a lot, and he is ashamed of himself in this regard, and he admires and admires it." ”

"Ahem, it's nothing, let's just wait and see what happens in Xixia, but Mr. Let's talk about King Ying, you see if I take him or persuade him to go back at the moment." In this matter, Wang Bi is really a little undecided, with him in case something happens, the Great Song Dynasty will be destroyed in his own hands, not to mention that he will ascend the throne in the future, and his father will change the law; But persuade him to go back, this kid doesn't look at the usual gentle and elegant, but he has a good idea, and persuasion may not be easy to persuade.

Hou Shuxian smiled and said, "Childe, it is a good thing for King Ying to come to you. ”

Chen Kang and Zhe Kejun, who were here, had just listened to Hou Shuxian's words, and they were already convinced by the new shogunate, and now hearing him say this, Chen Kang couldn't help blurting out, "It's a good thing, he is the first to know the secret here, in case he tells the whole story, it is not a good thing to offend the prime minister or bully the king." ”

Wang Bei knew that he had always been timid and afraid, so he smiled slightly: "Mr. Hou, where did the good things you said come from?" ”

Hou Shuxian explained unhurriedly: "Childe, you think, if you find or can't find the lost scroll, you will be in trouble; But if King Ying found it with you, the meaning is different. When Hou Shuxian said, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth,

Wake up the person in the dream with a word, Ying Wang Zhao Zhongzhen can resolve the crisis of the volume, but in this way, it is necessary to take Ying Wang south: "Mr. Hou reminds that in this way, if King Ying leaves the capital without permission, won't we harbor it." ”

"Where did Gongzi say, King Ying is not a prisoner, we just need to ensure his safety, the merit is higher than the Savior, Gongzi is the escort this time, and King Ying is looking for Gongzi, not Gongzi instigated him to go out of the capital; When the time comes, King Ying will be safely escorted back to the capital, and I'm afraid the emperor won't blame you. ”

Wang looked at Hou Shuxian, no matter how he analyzed it, he said that he was very thoughtful about himself, he slapped his thigh, "Yes, just do it, but about the gunpowder books, you can't tell him first, now is not the time, wait until you get the Guangnan Gazetteer and then find a way to submit it." ”

Hou Shuxian laughed: "Childe, you understand big things, small things are confused, a map is not a difficult thing, that is just a coincidence, if Prime Minister Zeng Gongliang does not talk about Guangnan Gazetteer, how can he send Gongzi to Guangnan, all state capitals, all road armies, where can not be summed up in a gazetteer." ”

"Damn, I was fooled." Wang scolded that Zeng Gongliang was really an old fox, and he wasted his wisdom in vain, but he didn't understand this little thing: "Thanks to Mr. Hou's reminder, otherwise I would still be entangled in how to find the gazetteer." The king scolded Zeng Gongliang, and hurriedly thanked Hou Shuxian,

Wang next to set the itinerary, hurry up the trip to the south, the south is necessary to go, and in case the court sends someone to find Zhong Needle, Zhong Zhen is still in Linchuan, and the father will be implicated when he asks for the crime, fortunately, Cai Jing arrived in Linchuan the next day, and also brought his younger brother Cai Bian, Cai Bian studied under Wang Anshi and stayed in the house, Wang ordered Cai Jing to return to the capital quickly to find out the news, and instructed Cai Jing not to reveal Zhao Zhongzhen's whereabouts,

Everything was ready to go on the road, but there was a small episode when leaving, the new county commander Li Ding met with the teacher Wang Anshi, heard that Wang Pan was about to leave Linchuan, so he came to Wang Panfu, Wang Pan saw Li Ding come in person, ordered someone to set down the banquet, was drinking Kung Fu, Su Xiaomei and Zhong Zhen came, Zhong Zhen did not attract Li Ding's attention, but Su Xiaomei, who was dressed as a man, couldn't help but let Li Ding look at it twice, and immediately made friends with this handsome young man with red lips and white teeth,

Originally, Li Ding had no malicious intent, Su Xiaomei obviously felt that this occasion was not suitable for her, so she found a reason to leave, during the banquet, Li Ding went out to relieve himself, and when he came back, he overheard that Zhong Zhen said that he wanted to promote Su Xiaoguan, this young Zhao Ji may be a royal nobleman, it is not uncommon to be able to nominate people to be officials, but Wang Bi even said: "No, no, no." Li Dingke was a little strange now, Wang was not a stingy person, he slowed down and listened carefully,

Wang Bi and Zhao Ji whispered something, Li Ding didn't hear it, but suddenly heard Zhao Ji say in surprise: "What, he is a woman, Brother Wang, I understand, do you have a crush on her." ”

"How can there be, after all, his brother Su Zizhan and we are friends, we can't be sorry for our friends, isn't it, besides, everything has to be justified, after all, people are waiting to be married, I can tell you, she doesn't know that I have seen it, I will treat you as a brother to tell you, we will go all the way in the future, we can't make any misunderstandings."

"Okay, hehe, I have your secrets, and you have mine." Zhao Ji was a little overwhelmed, he smiled innocently, Wang next to this breathed a sigh of relief, just saw the two of them come back together, this Zhao Ji is like a buddy to Su Xiaomei, if there is a misunderstanding, it will be even more troublesome, in case he really goes back to the capital to recommend Su Xiaomei, then Su Xiaomei is even more guilty of bullying,

As the saying goes, the wall has ears, their words happened to be heard by Li Ding, Li Ding is in his early twenties, especially when he sees Su Xiao, he has a good impression, at this moment he knows that the other party is a woman is even more excited, listening to them mention Su Zizhan, Li Ding is even more admired, Li Ding is a high-minded and arrogant person, although he is only a Jiupin county order at the moment, but he believes that as long as there is Bole, there will be his day, and it is also a good thing to be able to kiss Su Shi, back at the table, Li Ding drank a few lamps and couldn't sit still, saying that the county government still has something to do and hurriedly resigned,

After the episode, the group hurried on the road in less than two days, more than half a month later, they came to the territory of Shaozhou, at this time it was already a beautiful spring blooming everywhere, everyone walked while enjoying the scenery, so comfortable, Zhao Ji was a little happy, at this time they didn't know that a battle for the throne was brewing in the capital, and the emperor sent the person who was about to catch up with Zhao Ji, to bring a killing disaster to the king,
