It wasn't until it was dark that Chen Yuan came out of the room. People say that a small farewell is a newlywed, but just now it was a small farewell for Chen Yuan, a newlywed, and the wonderful taste cannot be described in words.

The only regret is that the cooperation between Hu Jing and Linghua is not so coordinated, both of them are a little shy and a little green, compared with the fourteen and fifteen in the Taishi Mansion. But then again, if Hu Jing and Linghua really had the same kung fu in bed as fourteen or fifteen, they probably wouldn't just be disappointed.

If you go to the Taishi Mansion to eat immediately, you don't have to go to many people, and Amuda can't go either, he has to look at those Jurchens. These are all standard raw Jurchens, and even the barbaric Liao people in the Song population consider barbaric people. Therefore, Chen Yuan gave orders to Amuda, Tie Anli and Su Tu that the Jurchens were not allowed to take a step out of the Yuelai Inn until they woke up tomorrow.

After the arrangement was made, he dared to leave the inn and go to the Taishi Mansion for a banquet.

The Taishi Mansion is still the same Taishi Mansion, there has been no change in the past six months, the only difference is that when he left, the Taishi Mansion was full of birds, and now there are some people who smell the smell and park their carriage at the door of the Taishi Mansion again.

When Chen Yuan went to the Taishi Mansion to ask for a meeting, he happened to meet Ren Fu who had met Yan Chasan at his marriage. Ren Fu's memory is also quite good, and after seeing Chen Yuan, he greeted him from afar: "Shopkeeper Chen!" Long time no see. As he spoke, he walked quickly and enthusiastically and hugged Chen Yuan, like an old friend who had not been seen for a long time.

"Haha," Ren Fugan laughed twice, "A few days ago, I heard the brother of the border army talk about the affairs of you and General Manager Pang in Liaoguo, and my brother really admires it in my heart!" So I went to the Taishi and asked the Taishi to inform my brother when you come back anyway. ”

That's the standard duplicity, wall-to-wall grass. As long as the wind is not in the right direction, he immediately changes direction and falls. Ren Fu once betrayed Lao Pang, but it was a matter of morality, and Lao Pang didn't care. Lao Pang himself is a tasteless person, so he has always only looked at interests when making friends.

Ren Fu chose a good time to turn around, and Lao Pang now needs help, especially in the army. Chen Yuan said very politely: "The general is really a villain,"

Before he finished speaking, Ren Fumeng's face straightened: "Brother Chen, don't say anything about the general, if the villain says like this, he won't treat me as a friend!" ”

Chen Yuan smiled: "In this way, my brother has climbed high, let my brother please!" ”

The two walked into the Taishi's Mansion side by side.

Although the Taishi Mansion has been here, it is the first time to walk in through the gate so leisurely. This was also the first time that Chen Yuan had the leisure to take a closer look at Lao Pang's house.

When you enter through the main door, you will see the main hall at a glance. Although the rockery and bamboo forests on both sides, the pavilions and pavilions are towering, but they did not block the view from here to the main hall, and I thought that Pang Taishi had thought a lot about it when he was in the layout.

A winding stone path extends to the main hall, Chen Yuan walks slowly with Pang Xi, Pang is still not able to walk as fast as before, along the way for Chen Yuan to point out those halls, pavilions, pavilions, terraces, corridors, etc., all of them are strict, the weather is solemn, and the names are also complex and diverse, even if Chen Yuan has a good memory, there is no way to remember them all at once.

However, he still remembered the road under his feet, and he killed it from this road with Chai Yang last time.

Lu Yijian was already standing at the door, and after seeing Chen Yuan appear, he shouted enthusiastically: "Shimei, come over quickly, I'll be waiting for you alone." ”

Chen Yuan confessed, walked in the door and took a look, in addition to Pang Ji and Lu Yijian, there were also three seats inside, thinking that there were only five people in front of him tonight.

Pang Ji was sitting in the center, looking at Chen Yuan with a smile, Chen Yuan clenched his fists and bent down to salute: "The villain has asked the master to say goodbye." ”

Pang Ji haha: "Chen Shimei, you don't have to be polite from now on, everyone is your own person, sit down." Pang Xi, you also sit down today, the old man said that he wants to toast the two of you today, this time you did a very good job! ”

Chen Yuan said: "This is my duty, and I dare not ask the master for credit." ”

Pang Xi and Lu Yijian looked at each other and smiled, and nodded appreciatively: "I'm not so corrupt, I just let others work in vain under the name of a nation's righteous recruitment." Just now, Pang Xi has told me about your situation, the old man has always had clear rewards and punishments, and I said, if you go out to do something for me this time, if you feel that you have lost something, the old man will compensate him! Come on, bring things up. ”

The two family members of the Taishi Mansion brought a box danglingly, Pang Ji personally stepped forward to open it, and Chen Yuan only saw a yellow and clear piece inside, which was particularly dazzling under the illumination of the light.

He didn't take it right away: "Taishi, I have gained a lot in Liao this trip,"

Pang Ji immediately interrupted him: "Alas, you earned it with your head, what does it have to do with me? This is the old man's reward for you, how can you make money by yourself when you do things for the old man? ”

Although Lao Pang is a deceitful person, his means of encircling people are very direct, and it is precisely because he is direct that he is very powerful.

Chen Yuan knew that if a person like Lao Pang didn't take this gold, he wouldn't be Lao Pang's enemy in the future, and he wouldn't be regarded as his own.

Immediately, his eyes rolled: "This, there is a proposal below, I don't know if I should say it or not?" ”

Lu Yijian looked at Chen Yuan with a smile next to him, and Pang Ji said, "But it's okay to say it!" ”

Chen Yuan said: "I want to buy a piece of land outside the city and build a villa. ”

At the moment, he said again what he had said to Linghua and Hu Jing, and then said: "If you use this money, you will be regarded as a share of the Taishi, how about it?" ”

Pang Ji's face was not good: "What is said to be given to you is given to you, where do these conditions come from!" ”

Lu Yijian spoke at this time, put down the wine glass in his hand and looked at Pang Ji: "The Taishi misunderstood Chen Shimei, he didn't want it, but he thought the Taishi gave less!" What he wants is to do business with the Taishi, but now the whole Great Song Dynasty doesn't want to do business? ”

Chen Yuan looked at Pang Ji with a smile: "That's what the villain means, and I hope that the master will be perfect." ”

Pang Ji's face turned from anger to joy: "Hahaha, that's good, that's it!" In this way, the matter of buying land is also wrapped up in the old man, and if you see that piece of land, come and talk to me. ”

This question is over, Pang Xi beckoned the three people who were still standing to sit down, and said to Ren Fu: "Ren Fu, I heard that the twelve fierce generals under your command are very brave, but is there such a thing?" ”

Ren Fu nodded, with a smug expression: "Back to Taishi, the twelve of them are all warriors who have been fighting with me on the frontier all the year round, I don't dare to boast about anything else, in the entire northwest, all the troops we led the army to fight have never lost battles!" ”

The troops of the Song Dynasty have always been separated from the generals, except for the petty officials like Di Qing, all the generals can only contact their own partial generals, as for the troops? When it's time for battle, the emperor will tell you where the troops you want to command are.

The lack of specialization in soldiers and generals is also one of the reasons why the Song Dynasty's combat effectiveness is extremely weak, so it can be said that there are very few generals who can win battles in this situation. Ren Fu is a person who often wins battles, which is why Pang Ji can tolerate him as a wall grass.

Pang Ji was very satisfied with Ren Fu's answer, and pointed his finger at him: "Shimei After they made trouble with Da Liao this time, they wanted to come to Liao Xingzong in order to divert the contradictions and pressure in their own country, they would inevitably choose war. The Jurchens have nothing to fight, and the north is too far away, so the gains outweigh the losses. He can only choose Da Song or Party Item. In comparison, the party is obviously much easier to fight. ”

Many people have seen this, Ren Fu said: "Taishi is wise, as far as the last general knows, after Li Yuanhao went back, he was also fighting his troops and horses, and his troops began to be mobilized to the border of Liao. ”

Pang Ji snorted: "The old man plans, when the emperor reactivates the old man, Lu Xiangguo and I immediately suggest that the emperor withdraw his troops in the northwest, so that Li Yuanhao can rest assured, and he can let go of his hands and feet to fight to the death with the Liao State, what do you think?" ”

This strategy is a standard ploy, very simple, but very effective.

The Liao must now fight a war, even if their national strength no longer allows them to fight. Once the Song Dynasty reduced its forces in the northwest, the main defense would definitely be transferred to the Song-Liao border, so that the Liao State would not use the Song Dynasty as the target of attack.

And Li Yuanhao became the only choice for the Khitans. Even if Li Yuanhao knew that this was a trick of the Song Dynasty, there was no way, he had to go all out to fight the Liao State.

After hearing this, Ren Fu clenched his fists and said, "The master is clever." ”

Pang Ji looked at him: "After the Northwest Army withdraws, according to the rules of the imperial court, there must be a change of generals, you should be ready." ”

Ren Fu was overjoyed in his heart, and knelt down to thank him: "Thank you Taishi for your promotion, the last general is grateful!" ”

The status of military generals was very low in the Song Dynasty, but if you can do the position of guarding one side, you can do it! This position has been the goal of Ren Fu's activities over the years, and now it has finally been achieved again.

Lu Yijian noticed that Chen Yuan's seemed to have something to say, and after Pang Ji finished speaking, he immediately asked, "Shimei, you seem to have something to say?" ”

Chen Yuan nodded: "Xiangguo, hasn't the Taishi been reinstated yet?" ”

Lu Yijian and Pang Ji laughed at the same time, and only said after a moment: "Does Shimei also think that it is incomprehensible that we let go of this opportunity?" ”

Chen Yuan thought to himself for a while, and suddenly understood in his heart: "Is it difficult, is there any way for the Taishi to let the emperor know from other places that this matter was done by the Taishi?" ”

Pang Ji was very proud: "I will definitely be able to invite the emperor to ask for credit, but it is better to let the emperor take the initiative to reward me with credit!" ”

The reason is very simple, if Pang Ji tells Renzong that Chen Shimei and Pang Xi were sent to Liao by them, then Renzong will definitely be very happy, and Pang Ji will have whatever he wants, including reinstating his official position.

But if Pang Ji didn't say it, Renzong himself found out that the person who helped the Great Song Dynasty solve this problem was Pang Ji, then it would be as simple as asking for something and something.

This idea must not have been conceived by Pang Ji, not that he was not smart enough, but his personality was not so calm.

Chen Yuan secretly glanced at Lu Yijian, the old man was still drinking with the wine jug, as if everything had nothing to do with him.

He really bears some resemblance to Xiao Tatari's style.
