Silence always comes very suddenly, this sentence can just be used on the Zichen Palace, and there is a sudden silence above the main hall, and even a needle can be heard on the ground.

Emperor Renzong and the civil and military officials all looked at the king above the main hall, he stood with his hands behind his back and looked at Sima Guang with an unafraid look, Sima Guang looked at him, and immediately understood why Zhao Shu had scruples about this young man, his body exuded a kind of domineering aura that Zhao Shu should have but did not have, he just stood there, he would attract everyone's attention, this is a natural temperament,

Sima Guang also stepped forward and walked out of the queue, a pair of sharp eyes on his expressionless face, swept aside on everyone's faces in the court, and before he opened his mouth to speak, the king had already suppressed him in momentum, of course Sima Guang would not be moved by these, his voice was a little dry, probably because he had just said too much, he said to Emperor Renzong: "Qiqi Sheng, the minister thinks that since the Western Xia has come to discuss the matter, we should open the favorable conditions of our Song Kingdom to make up for the "Qingli Peace Conference" Among them, our country promised to give the loss of materials to the Western Xia State. ”

As soon as Sima Guang's words came out, the court was in an uproar, and the hundreds of officials in the hall were originally whispering to each other, but there were too many people, and Renzong only heard a buzzing sound like a bunch of flies, and he couldn't help frowning slightly,

Sima Guang looked at Zhao Shu, Zhao Shu rarely appeared in the court, today he just wanted to come to see the good looks next to the king, he saw Sima Guang say this, nodded approvingly,

Wang looked at the expressions of these officials, and knew that Sima Guang's proposal was not a small number.

Bao Zheng saw that Sima Guang opened his mouth widely, didn't he sincerely intend to trade, he didn't even think about it, so he stood up in line and said: "Enlighten the saint, the minister thinks it's not feasible." As soon as he spoke, he followed the officials Wang Anshi, Wang Qi, and Han Jiang who stood up behind him, all of whom felt that trade was important, and even Prime Minister Zeng Gongliang shook his head although he didn't speak,

Ouyang Xiu, Liu Chang and others also stood up, and Ouyang Xiu took the lead in supporting Sima Guang: "The Western Xia sent an envoy again, which is enough to show the surrender to the Song State. ”

As soon as he said this, someone on the side who was in favor of smooth trade said: "The Western Xia wanted to trade through Wang Shilang's visit and persuasion, which is a good thing for both countries." ”

The one who asked for benefits over there said: "Wang Shilang has confirmed that even if I don't discuss it with Western Xia, my Song Kingdom can be self-sufficient." ”

Ministers, you say a word, originally there were two classes of queues on the main hall, but now there is a chaotic formation, more than a dozen people stand out in the main hall, Renzong secretly rejoices, fortunately, Song Taizu has always emphasized literature and light martial arts, and the situation in front of him is just a noise of civil officials, if this is a military general, it is estimated that it has already become a martial arts field,

He glanced at the fuse next to the king, and found that the king was holding back a smile, the king did think it was funny, and finally knew why Renzong asked him to talk to Sima Guang, as if he was going to watch a good show, he sat up straight and became interested, Renzong and Wang looked at each other, as if to say, see, the court of the Song Dynasty is like this, this is the finale of every dynasty,

Zhao Shu saw that everyone was gossiping, and said in his heart that he didn't listen to you today, so he also stood up and said: "Father Qi, Erchen thinks that since this matter has been proposed by Lord Sima, Wang Shilang has something to do, so it is better to let Wang Shilang talk about it." When he said this, everyone felt that it was reasonable, whether he was in charge of the matter, or listen to what the king had to say.

The king glanced at Zhao Shu and smiled at the prince, prince, prince, if I agree with Lord Sima, it will be a big problem, if I disagree, it means that I don't have the ability,

Wang Bei smiled slightly and asked Bao Zhengshili: "May I ask Lord Bao, in the Qingli Peace Conference, how many materials will my country give to Western Xia." ”

Lord Bao looked at the king, what kind of reputation this kid is doing, he must know about this, but since he asked himself, it is difficult to answer these numbers Lord Bao, he can say it when he opens his mouth: "There are provisions in the Qingli Peace Conference, Xixia Yuanhao is a vassal to our country, but my country gives Xixia 130,000 horses of silk, 50,000 taels of silver and 20,000 catties of tea every year, and the two sides negotiate peacefully to protect the country and the people." ”

The king said "oh~", and then asked, "Thank you, Lord Bao." He looked at Sima Guang with a smile: "Lord Sima, what I just said would be how much if it was converted into silver taels." ”

His appearance seemed to be very modest, Sima Guang only thought that he could not count it for a while, so he returned: "This horse of silk is about seven or eight hundred copper coins, and these 130,000 horses of silk can be roughly calculated as 130,000 taels of silver; This tea, if it is one or two hundred wen a catty according to the medium, 20,000 catties of tea is about six or seven thousand taels of silver, and a total of about 190,000 taels. ”

The king said "oh~" again, and several officials were suddenly taken by him with "oh"

Wang smiled next to him, and said in his heart that I will take you all together "Oh~", and next time I will guide you to "Hey~~~" We will arrive at Deyun Club,

He asked Lord Bao again: "Then let me ask Lord Bao, how many years does the "Tanyuan Alliance" China give to the Liao State every year. ”

Lord Bao looked at the king, what is this kid doing, why will he ask me all the time, this king asked Bao Zheng because, Bao Zheng has always been famous for notarization, and Lord Bao is in charge of the numbers of the three divisions, it is better to ask Bao Zheng than to ask anyone, Bao Zheng said: "The Tanyuan Alliance stipulates that our country gives Liao Sui 100,000 taels of silver and 200,000 horses of silk every year. ”

"Oh~~" next to the king This time, there are more than a dozen officials who follow the "oh~" next to the king,

Wang looked at Sima Guan and grinned extremely mischievously: "Lord Sima, I'm sorry, you are helping me calculate how many silver taels this is." ”

Sima Guang knew that the king had the intention to tease, but it was normal to ask and answer in the court, what kind of medicine was sold in this kid's gourd, but he didn't have the temperament to deal with this kid, he said angrily: "About 300,000 taels." ”

There was a mouth next to the king, his oh didn't come out, and more than half of the officials above the court squinted his eyes and showed a wicked smile,

Renzong lowered his head and covered his face with his hand, he wanted to laugh and worry, a court, a court, a few dozen years old, let the king take a slippery turn,

The officials in the hall also looked at each other, shook their heads and laughed, and stood in their respective places, and only Wang and Sima Guang were left standing in the middle of the hall.

Wang thought about Sima Guang and said: "Thank you, Lord Sima, now I know in my heart, after the Tanyuan Alliance, although my country gives Liao two silver taels every year, but the two countries can basically make up for the deficit of the two silver taels in the year, I am right." ”

Sima Guang nodded, and said in his heart that this kid is really powerful, and Wang continued: "Sima Guang's suggestion is nothing, normal trade transactions can make up for the shortfall, and Master Sima Guang's suggestion is good." He said with a thumbs up,

Sima Guang was stunned by what he said, and suddenly felt as if his brain was frozen, he was originally talking about asking Xixia to give additional compensation to the Song State for trade, how could he be bypassed by the king to the income after the trade, but the words he said, the water that was spilled, could not be refuted, so that the king seemed to be so calculated that only trade could make up for the shortfall given by the Song State to the Western Xia.

Bao Zheng snickered, good boy is waiting, he knows that Wang Bi secretly changed Sima Guang's idea, but he doesn't expose it,

Wang Fang seemed to be still unsatisfied, and he suddenly shook his head and said: "It's too little, it's just made up for the loss, and you should earn another 200,000 taels." ”

After his words were finished, there were all kinds of laughter in the court, some laughed at the king's big words, some thought that the king was moving Sima Guang, and even Renzong did not hide his laughter, the prince did not wait for Renzong to speak, and rushed forward and said: "How can it be child's play to discuss matters above the court, since the king said this, Erchen thinks that he should let him talk about how to earn another 200,000 taels." ”

For what Wang said next to the king, naturally many people didn't believe it, and even Wang Anshi frowned, is this baby a little too frivolous, what the court said is not a joke, the civil and military officials are all looking at it, if you can't do it, even if Renzong doesn't blame, the twists and turns next to the king will come one after another,

Ouyang Xiu, a bachelor of Hanlin, was slightly dissatisfied with Wang Bei, and the student Su Shi was also frivolous and talented, not as flamboyant as Wang Bei, this little Wang didn't put these ministers above the court at all, and he was the one who was together just now, some people laughed, and some people felt teased, Ouyang Xiu felt like this, and he also conformed to the words of this prince Zhao Shu and said: "Qi Yu Sheng, the minister also heard that the king of Yanzhou has made political achievements in managing private salt, but the time is still short, whether it is a coincidence is unknown, and now the court is boasting." , it's a bit of a joke. ”

Ouyang Xiu supported Sima Guang, but Sima Guang naturally couldn't watch it, so he also played: "The minister thinks that what the prince and Lord Ouyang said is reasonable, please consider the words of the king, and verify the basis for salt control in Yanzhou and the theory that this trade can make more money." ”

When these words came out, even if Lord Bao and Wang Anshi had the heart to look towards Wang, they couldn't defend Wang, and Wang's friends Xue Chun, Zeng Bu, Cheng Yi and others could only look at Wang, waiting for him to answer,

Even if Renzong has the heart to protect the king, but seeing that what the ministers said is also reasonable, he looked at Zeng Gongliang and Han Qi, Zeng Gongliang was just appointed, he looked at Renzong and other emperors with a blank face, Han Qi was always in a lively state of mind, he saw that Renzong was silent, knowing that Renzong and others were round, he didn't even look at the emperor, and said that the prince's opinion I don't want to mix,

Renzong looked at the king again, he had already put away his evil smile, and said with a serious face: "The minister asks the palace to submit a picture, how to earn the 200,000 taels, I will wait for the picture to be sent to the palace before the explanation, 200,000 taels of silver is nothing, I also want Xixia to send me Song horses every year, what do you think." ”

There was no uproar in the main hall, and many people opened their mouths in surprise when the king said, and they just dragged their chins with their hands.
