"This, if the emperor also has this meaning, he will not refuse it. Pen Fun Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Chen Yuan looked at Su Yan with a smile and gave him such an answer. This reply is no different from not replying, it can be regarded as a way for Chen Yuan to politely reject Su Xiaoyou.

Su Yan naturally understood the meaning, and there seemed to be some hesitation in his expression. Chen Yuan had to take the initiative to help in this matter, because Renzong would definitely ask Chen Yuan's opinion.

But Chen Yuan has obviously expressed his reluctance to go too deep.

"Okay, if there is nothing else to do, please forgive me for being rude, I still have a lot of guests outside, if you don't have anything to do, please stay here one step less, speaking of which, I haven't invited you to dinner since you came to Bianjing, how about a drink or two here tonight?"

Saying such a thing, it means that there is no need to talk about this matter, Su Yan got up: "Master Ma is polite, you are busy today, I won't bother." After the triumphant return of the horse master, let's get together again, and the old man will say goodbye. ”

After sending Su Yan away, the porter went to call the next guest. Chen Yuan sat on the chair and took a deep breath.

The court, officialdom, are all places he doesn't want to get involved, but now he can't get out, even if he wants to go, others won't let him go. For example, after Su Yan goes back this time, Su Xiaoyou may continue to convey information to herself in other ways, and she will even come to find her in person.

Come on, come on. It's not that Chen Yuan doesn't want to have a good relationship with the next monarch, it's just that it's not time yet.

Now that he is a rich old man, it is a very modest statement to say that it is Bill Gates of the Song Dynasty. The people of the entire Great Song Dynasty used the bank as a place for them to deposit their money, and from the imperial court, down to the merchants, and the vassal states such as Dali Zhancheng, they basically had less money from Chen Yuan.

As for how much money there is, Chen Yuan has not calculated, because at present, money is a number for him, and there is no need to calculate it.

His capital operation model supports the operation of the entire Great Song Dynasty economy, and whoever will be the next emperor will not be stupid enough to have a conflict with Chen Yuan. Of course, if Chen Yuan made them feel dangerous, it would be different.

Although Chen Yuan only has a three-grade idle position in the court, but now those old people in the court are about to retire, and among the new batch of people who go up, the relationship between Ouyang Xiu and Chen Yuan is very good, and so is Song Qi, and Xia Sui was even pulled up by Chen Yuan.

And a group of poor students who were sponsored by Chen Yuan at the beginning, there were also a few very outstanding ones who also started their own careers, although he did not beckon protégés like those scholars, but no one doubted Chen Yuan's right to speak in the court in the future.

At the same time, the rise of martial artists is also a big relationship with Chen Yuan, and those generals basically listen to the words of this concubine except for the emperor. Among them, like Liu Ping and Yang Wenguang, these people are wearing the same pants as Chen Yuan.

In the political circles, his influence in the military circles is already very large, and in the shopping mall, it is his world. At this time, if he asks for more, it will make people worry. Therefore, Chen Yuan didn't want to get involved in this matter of establishing the crown prince too early, and helped Zhao Shu himself, if he lost, others would be very jealous of themselves after they ascended the throne. If Zhao Shu wins, he will also worry about his own self-respect.

Renzong is not worried because Renzong understands him and can control him. But it's different with another emperor. But Zhao Shu is different, what else can Zhao Shu give himself? Let yourself take another step, I'm afraid that the most worrying thing will be the new emperor at that time.

Now for Chen Yuan, doing things is not so much about striving for ideals, but about liking this kind of challenge. He wants to see the Great Song Dynasty become rich and strong in his hands, and he wants the Great Song Dynasty to not face the fate of going back hundreds of years in his hands, but going forward for a few hundred years.

Also, Chen Yuan hoped that all the people of the Great Song Dynasty would be fed, that there would be some meat on the table, and that they would never suffer from war again.

He didn't want to cause himself unnecessary trouble because of some unnecessary doubts.

The next person to come to find Chen Yuan was Ouyang Xiu, who came back from Tsushima.

Tsushima was a very important link for Chen Yuan to ensure the safety of the Great Song Dynasty, a country that brought great disasters to the Han people after the Later Dynasty, and they were the first link in the island chain after the Later Dynasty. If they can be brought into the arms of the Great Song Dynasty, then the entire maritime defense circle will be built.

Tsushima had already submitted three requests to be attached to the Great Song Dynasty, and this time Ouyang Xiu came back and brought back their fourth appearance.

After Ouyang Xiu came back, Renzong had already said something, and the scholars and doctors in the court did not say anything about it. This can be regarded as a way for them to protest on this matter, everyone knows in their hearts that the matter of Tsushima was done by Chen Yuan, and Renzong is an insider and even a participant from the beginning to the end.

Now the two of them turned the cook's jingle of the pot and the aroma wafted out, and turned back to ask the diners in the room, can it be served? What can diners say? It's too late to stop it, the dish is already in the pot, you can serve it when you look at it.

"Shimei, the emperor said, it depends on your attitude towards the horse, that Ji Xin is now like an ant on a hot pot, staying on the ship every day, waiting to come back. You should give a word, if you can, the emperor said, let me do this matter. ”

Chen Yuan looked at Ouyang Xiu's appearance of a little immortal, and suddenly had a feeling of wanting to laugh. This is the great writer I admired very much before, it turns out that he is also a layman, taking advantage of Wen Yanbo's absence in Bianjing, he went to comfort other people's little wives, which is really romantic.

Ouyang Xiu was very uncomfortable with him, and looked at himself differently, first looked at the clothes, then looked at the shoes, and then touched his hair bun with his hand, didn't feel that there was anything wrong? Why does this Chen Shimei look at herself with such eyes?

"What do you see me doing?" Ouyang Xiu really couldn't stand Chen Yuan's eyes, and his expression had changed a little when he asked.

Chen Yuan smiled: "It's nothing." Lord Ouyang, how far has Tsushima been fighting now? ”

Ouyang Xiu saw that Chen Yuan's eyes disappeared, and he began to get down to business: "Don't you know, after we took those people under Liu Ping away, Tsushima's army was not Zunren's opponent at all. During this period of time, they fought dozens of battles, and Tsushima won only 12 out of 10. That guy has already come back, and when I arrived, they were preparing to launch a campaign to recapture Kyoto, and in my opinion, it would be good for the Tsushima army to hold on for a month. ”

Chen Yuan had already predicted the course of the war, and he had transferred his troops, and those people under Ji Xin's men were no match for the Dongying people at all. All he cares about is how many people have died in Dongying now.

"What about the casualties among the people of Tsushima?"

This topic obviously revealed Ouyang Xiu's sympathy, and a look of compassion suddenly appeared on his face: "Oh, you didn't see it!" I originally thought that those Tsushima people and the Toying people were also of the same root, and there should be a sense of proportion, but I never thought that the first thing the Toei people did after they conquered a place was to slaughter. ”

Xiao Yue has this virtue, Chen Yuan can guess without thinking about it. Emperor Ninto was beaten to Hokkaido by himself as a prince, and he persevered for so long under extremely difficult conditions, and the already perverted psychology of the Japanese people has become even more distorted.

The same is true of the widows who insisted with him, once they were given the opportunity to kill, they would inevitably find a way to release all the pain and depression they had had.

If a perverted person is more perverted, it will be an unimaginable perversion. Ouyang Xiu told Chen Yuan that when Zunren had just come out, some of the guys were still cooperating with the military operations of the Dongying people, and they were happy to drink the return of their former emperor.

But when the Dongying army appeared with them, the first thing they did was to rob them of their food and capture their women.

When they resisted, they cut off their heads with a single sword.

Those soldiers under Zunren thought that this was the right thing, even if they didn't want these women, they would leave them to the Song people, since they could serve the Song people, why couldn't they serve themselves?

This kind of behavior completely broke the hearts of those ordinary people. They could accept the ravages of the Song people, because in their eyes the Song army was the invader. But now, their emperor has done the same thing, which not only ravages their bodies, but also destroys the faith they have always held on to in their hearts.

So later, in order to ensure that they would survive, they began to help the Song people resist Emperor Nazunhito, which could only be exchanged for more brutal massacres. In the eyes of those soldiers under Zunren, it was shameful for those who surrendered to the Song Dynasty and joined the so-called Tsushima Kingdom all these years, and now helping the Song Dynasty to fight them should be killed.

Ouyang Xiu told Chen Yuan that massacres were happening every day, and the population of the entire Dongying was declining sharply, and all the war-torn areas would not have one in ten after the war, which was much more miserable than when the Song Dynasty first marched into Dongying.

Listening to Ouyang Xiu's description of Dongying's current scene, Chen Yuan knew that what he wanted had almost been achieved. Only by letting the image of the emperor collapse in the minds of the Dongying people, and only by turning the once sacred emperor into a demon can Song Jun transform into an angel.

Of course, the massacre is not without a bottom line, Chen Yuan needs Xiao Yue to die a lot of people, but not death. Kyushu Island is the bottom line of the Song army, there are countless shops and workshops in the Song Dynasty, as well as two docks that took a lot of manpower and material resources to build.

Landing is absolutely not allowed here.

Now that they have sent the campaign to recover Kyoto, it is not far from the island of Kyushu. Chen Yuan stood up: "That's right, it's time to come, the fruit is already ripe, and if you don't pick it off on the tree, it may rot." Lord Ouyang, you definitely want to quell the war in Tsushima, how many soldiers do you need? ”

Ouyang Xiu thought for a moment: "I absolutely want at least 20,000 soldiers." ”

Chen Yuan was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then smiled: "It's too much." Five thousand at most is enough, so let's go back and prepare, tomorrow I will go to the emperor to talk about this matter, and if I can, let Ji Xin come back. This time, let's go together. ”

Ouyang Xiu was very surprised: "What? Don't you have to go to Zhongjing? ”

Chen Yuan also wanted to go to Zhongjing, Wen Yanbo said that Zhongjing's affairs could not be separated from him Chen Yuan. But this is a polite sentence, this world can be turned away from anyone, and without itself, the problems of Liao can be solved.

Similarly, if he went to Zhongjing by himself, Ouyang Xiu and the others would be able to handle Xiao Yueben's affairs well, and Chen Yuan wanted to go in person because he wanted to personally turn those four islands into the four states of the Song Dynasty. There is also the matter of Goryeo, Dongying has solved it, Goryeo is already a dish on the plate of the Song Dynasty, Chen Yuan wants to make this Korean kimchi more refreshing, so that the Song Dynasty can eat happily.
