readx;?is not a person on the Tao, the Tao is not the same! Zhao Lei was stunned by the beam on the top and muttered in his mouth. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info whole \ this // small \ say // net

Zhao Lei is now lying in Bai Xinlan's bedroom in Zhao's mansion, surrounded by Bai Xinlan's fiery delicate body, but Zhao Lei's heart is a little cold.

The plan proposed in the imperial study to pretend to be a horse thief to loot Western Xia was completely denied, and everyone disagreed with Zhao Lei's opinion, among which Fan Zhongyan was the most fiercely opposed.

"The state of etiquette in the Great Song Dynasty, how can you do the things of beasts!"

Thinking of Fan Zhongyan's disdainful eyes when he said this, Zhao Lei was very angry in his heart.

"Official!" Bai Xinlan lay in Zhao Lei's arms, looked at Zhao Lei's stunned expression, hugged Zhao Lei in distress and called softly.

"Xinlan, do you know the origin of the horse thieves in the northern frontier of the Great Song Dynasty?" Zhao Lei asked Bai Xinlan in a deep voice.

"The concubine heard Ruoruo's sister say that most of the horse thieves in Hebei are from Liao, and most of the horse thieves in Yongxing Military Road and Qinfeng Road are from Western Xia, I heard that they are all supported by the courts of Xia and Liao, and the reason why these horse thieves disturb the north is to weaken the national strength of the Great Song Dynasty." Bai Xinlan nodded and replied softly to Zhao Lei.

"Xia Liao is going to war." Zhao Lei sighed and said in a low depression.

"Xia Liao went to war, this is a good thing for the Great Song Dynasty! Why are the officials unhappy? Bai Xinlan looked at Zhao Lei puzzled and asked.

Zhao Lei looked at the smart Bai Xinlan and told the story of the students in the imperial study, including the result of breaking up unhappily because of the horse thief's proposal.

"Officials should know that you are different from those adults, they are from the orthodox imperial examination, they pay attention to loyalty, filial piety and righteousness, and their vision is different from that of officials. That's why the concubine said that Fan Zhongyan and the officials were not the same people on the road. Bai Xinlan got up and stroked the wrinkled lines on Zhao Lei's forehead, and said to Zhao Lei softly.

"Pretending to be a horse thief to harass the Western Xia border, it can definitely deal a heavy blow to the stability of Western Xia, this kind of opportunity is not much, if it is not the battle of Xia Liao, Yuan Hao must send cavalry from all over the country to participate in the war, with the ability of the cavalry of the Great Song Dynasty, go to Western Xia to harass, purely looking for death, and this is a good opportunity for military training. Send more cavalry to attack in turn, war is definitely the best training for training soldiers, qb5 rare opportunity! Is it just a matter of letting it go. Zhao Lei slapped the bed unwillingly and said loudly.

"In fact, if the officials really want to harass Western Xia, it is not without a chance!" A wise smile flashed on Bai Xinlan's delicate face, and she said mysteriously to Zhao Lei.

"Do you have a way?" Zhao Lei asked Bai Xinlan suspiciously.

"The concubine has no way, but the other women of the official have a way!" Bai Xinlan still said mysteriously.

"A few other women!" Zhao Lei looked at Bai Xinlan in amazement, pondered for a while, and suddenly realized: "Xinlan, you mean that Ruoruo still has a promotion to the country." ā€

"That's right! Ruoruo's father Xiao Rong is still lurking in Western Xia, don't forget that Xiao Rong was a hero in Hebei resisting the horse thieves of the Liao State at the beginning, and there are many Hebei heroes who are good at riding and shooting, and Sister Shengguo is the most respected sister of the official Zhao Zhen. With the face of Sister Shengguo, it is not a problem to get three or five thousand war horse armor and other equipment. The problem of the source of soldiers is better said, ~ with more than 100,000 Qiang people, Qiang people and horse thieves have always been uncommon in Western Xia.

Ruoruo's father is familiar with the situation in Western Xia, and at the same time has a group of men and horses under him, who can be the commander, and the sister who ascends to the country can solve the equipment problem, the source of soldiers comes from the Qiang people, and all the conditions for pretending to be horse thieves have been met. Benefiting the country and the people at the same time benefiting oneself, how can officials not do this kind of thing! Bai Xinlan looked at Zhao Lei with a gentle smile and said.

"Xinlan, you are really my idle helper, you are simply a female middle school Zhuge !" Zhao Lei hugged Bai Xinlan and kissed her deeply, until Bai Xinlan was breathless, he let go of her and said excitedly.

Excitedly, Zhao Lei couldn't sleep anymore. After staying with Bai Xinlan for a while, he left the bedroom directly and went to Ruoruo's room.

The courtyards of several ladies in the Zhao family's back house are all next to the lake and forest. It is not far from the garden, and in spring it is full of birds and flowers, and the scenery is charming.

Xiao Ruoruo's bedroom is very different from Bai Xinlan's bedroom, there are no elegant things such as piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and decorations such as swords and bows and crossbows can be seen everywhere.

Xiao Ruoruo, who was lonely and sleeping, felt in a daze that someone climbed onto her bed and got into her quilt, and she looked up in surprise, but saw Zhao Lei's excited eyes.

"Official! In the middle of the night, I don't rest at Sister Xinlan's, what are you doing here! After Xiao Ruoruo saw that it was Zhao Lei, the spirit that had just been mentioned relaxed, and asked Zhao Lei lazily and in a daze.

"Ruoruo, I have something important to discuss with you, don't sleep yet." Zhao Lei picked up Xiao Ruoruo's almost ** delicate body with great interest, kneaded Xiao Ruoruo's pink buttocks a few times, and said in a low voice after waking Xiao Ruoruo from sleep.

"The officials are so annoying!" Xiao Ruoruo opened Zhao Lei's strange hand, and after yawning, he shook his head and looked at Zhao Lei.

Looking at Xiao Ruoruo's already sober inquiring eyes, Zhao Lei asked in a low voice; "Ruoruo! My father-in-law is in Western Xia, how many people can he mobilize? ā€

"Manpower! What are you doing? Xiao Ruoruo looked at Zhao Lei unexpectedly, very puzzled by his man's question.

"Xia Liao

怂 Zhao Lei said in a deep voice.

"Go to war! My father won't be dragged into battle, so there won't be any danger! Xiao Ruoruo's first reaction when he heard Zhao Lei's words was that Xiao Rong was still in Western Xia, would there be any danger.

"Nope! To deal with the elite cavalry of the Liao State, the cavalry of the non-Western Xia party was invincible, and the Han people were definitely not in the ranks of the conscription. Zhao Lei comforted Xiao Ruoruo and said.

"That's good, why don't I let Daddy come back!" Xiao Ruoruo looked at Zhao Lei expectantly and asked.

"There is still a father-in-law's sea fishing document hanging on the Liao side, and the imperial court will not let the father-in-law affect the relationship between Song and Liao, so the father-in-law cannot appear in the Great Song Dynasty now." Zhao Lei looked at Xiao Ruoruo helplessly and explained.

"Yes! Daddy has always been bold and free, and I once persuaded him to live incognito in the Great Song Dynasty, but Daddy just didn't agree, and finally took more than 700 old brothers to Western Xia. Xiao Ruoruo said in a low tone.

There are more than 700 people, which is quite a lot, if you can get 3,000 people and equipment through the princess of Shengguo, the state only needs to transfer more than 2,000 people, you can form a powerful horse thief group, and the harassment of Xiping Mansion will be turned upside down. When Zhao Lei heard Xiao Ruoruo's words, he began to calculate in his heart.

"My father-in-law has always been active in Western Xia, how to contact him." Zhao Lei pondered for a while and continued to ask.

"Just on the border of Xiping Mansion and Xingqing Mansion, hiding in the Hengduan Mountains, Daddy left a contact person in Xiping Mansion, as long as you notify that contact, you can find Daddy." Xiao Ruoruo explained carefully to Zhao Lei.

"You tell me how to contact my father-in-law, and when I'm ready, I'll send someone to contact my father-in-law." Zhao Lei began to ponder about the horse thief, and said casually to Xiao Ruoruo.

"What are you going to do?" Xiao Ruoruo didn't know Zhao Lei's plans yet, so he asked in a puzzled tone.

After telling Xiao Ruoruo about pretending to be a horse thief to harass Xixia, seeing Xiao Ruoruo agree, Zhao Lei, who was relieved, felt a little tired, and finally stayed in Xiao Ruoruo's bedroom for the night.

………………………………

At noon on a warm spring day, the Imperial City of Bianjing is majestic and solemn under the shroud of sunlight, and when you climb the high place of the pavilion, you can see the pedestrians in the Imperial City, like busy ants coming and going.

At this time, Zhao Lei was one of the ants, he bowed down, walked behind the group, in front of him, the princess of Shengguo wore a veil, surrounded by a group of palace maids, and walked towards the forbidden place step by step.

Zhao Lei bowed his head and walked with his head bowed, but he also had no way, the princess of Shengguo entered the West Corner Taoist Temple and became Zhao Lei's secret lover, which is no longer a secret secret in Bianjing officialdom, just like Yang Wenguang's lover The county lord entered the West Corner Taoist Temple, and the people of Bianjing have discussed it, and the promotion of the country has a greater influence than the county lord, but the sister of the official Zhao Zhen, she became Zhao Lei's lover, and the influence is even more violent, although the government and the opposition dare not speak openly, but secretly there are not many people who envy and envy Zhao Lei! Now that Zhao Lei and Princess Shengguo have come to the imperial city together, how many officials who know Shengguo always smile very obscenely at Zhao Lei, and Zhao Lei is very embarrassed by the smile, so he can only walk with his head down, just when he can't see those officials.

When Shengguo and Zhao Lei saw the official Zhao Zhen, Zhao Zhen was eating, originally at this time, the big thing could not disturb Zhao Zhen, but who was Shengguo, the official Zhao Zhen's own sister, Zhao Zhen's most respected sister, so when Zhao Zhen saw the arrival of Shengguo and Zhao Lei, he smiled and invited the two to have a royal lunch.

"What is the important matter of the imperial sister here?" Seeing Zhao Lei behind Shengguo, the wise official Zhao Zhen had already guessed the purpose of the two of them, but Shengguo came in person, and some things were always difficult to say, so Zhao Zhen pretended to be confused and asked.

"Official! Poor Dao wanted cavalry equipment for 3,000 men. Shengguo was not polite, and directly asked for equipment and said.

"New Army!" Zhao Lei heard Shengguo say two words, and hurriedly whispered in the back.

"That's right! Cavalry equipment for the formation of three thousand new troops! Shengguo reacted immediately and added.

"Poof!" The official Zhao Zhen squirted out a mouthful of tea.

Turning his head to look at Zhao Lei, Zhao Zhen said helplessly to Shengguo: "Sister Huang! Do you know how much cavalry equipment the 3,000 new army has and how much it is worth? ā€

"This! I don't know. Shengguo was slightly stunned and said.

"The cavalry equipment in the new army includes a high-grade war horse, a pair of horse armor, a pair of knight half-body armor, including boot helmets, a delicate crossbow, ten grenades, thirty crossbow arrows, two sabers, and a horse pistol, in addition to these necessary equipment, there are also gold sore medicine, dry food, water bags, horse grass and other things, the total value of which reaches two thousand taels, three thousand establishments, that is two million taels!" The official Zhao Zhen was very helpless and explained to Shengguo, who knew nothing about military affairs.

Zhao Lei, who was behind the ascension of the country, looked at the official Zhao Zhen with disdain, he understood that Zhao Zhen was now bluffing the ascension of the country, two million taels to form a cavalry of three thousand new troops, which was definitely the market price, outrageously high, in fact, these things were produced in addition to war horses, and the State-owned Assets Supervision and Administration Institute produced them, and the formation of three thousand new army cavalry would definitely not take 500,000 taels, which was still the valuation obtained by counting the high-quality war horses into the market price.
