Chapter 246: No Quest for Forgiveness
How to beg Zhao Kuangyin for mercy is really a troublesome matter.
Li Yu didn't have a clue when he thought about it, so he simply threw it to Lord Xu Xuan.
Lord Xu Xuan was not ambiguous, and he tossed for more than half a year for discussions, meetings, demonstrations, and research, and waited until the spring of Kaibao's seventh year before finally setting off for Bianliang.
Because it really can't be delayed any longer.
In the upper reaches of Jing Lake, a huge amount of wood chips and bamboo chips have drifted down.
Upstream in shipbuilding.
hurriedly arranged for a detailed work to investigate, and Lord Xu Xuan was taken aback.
Xu Yongzhi built 20 giant ships upstream, 1,000 Yellow Dragon warships, and 1,000 Black Dragon warships.
The giant ship was mass-produced according to Tian Dabang's drawings and samples, and it was also on the river.
The Huanglong ship is equipped with a fierce fire tank and a slapping rod, and it is an aggressive ship;
On the black dragon ship are bows and arrows, mainly to transport troops;
Judging from this number, it is not impossible to directly cross the river with a huge ship and make a pontoon bridge.
Li Yu couldn't sit still at this time, so he hurriedly discussed with Li Forsythia.
Li Lianqiao told him: "I have my own countermeasures. Li Yu thought about it, just hanging on a tree would be a big trouble, and he still had to use some traditional channels.
Take, for example, diplomacy.
There is a saying: the eldest daughter of the poor family, the minister of the country.
If Xiaogui is still there, maybe going to Beijing to do activities will be able to appease the irascible Emperor of the Great Song Dynasty. Li Yu thought about it, and he could only send Xu Xuan to make another effort.
Lord Xu Xuan is the first debater in Jiangnan, and Jiangnan has been stronger than the north since ancient times, so it is okay to say that he is the first debater in the world.
Before Xu Xuan set off, Li Yu pulled him to teach him face-to-face.
"Explain to the official family that last time it was a conflict of personal grievances."
Where did the personal grudge come from in the court? This is too much to take Zhao Kuangyin as mentally retarded.
"Your Majesty, I can't explain it like that." Seo Hyun complained bitterly.
"It's up to you to argue." Li Yu was also helpless.
"It's ...... to argue again," Seo said.
"That's it! We're in this situation, you do your best. Li Yu said.
Xu Xuan hurried away, and arrived in Bianliang in early May, Zhao Pu got the notice and hurried into the palace to see Zhao Kuangyin.
Zhao Kuangyin's study has become a professional command post, drawing, making sand tables, sorting out intelligence, and a group of young military attachΓ©s are working by his side.
These are the sons of loyal servants.
After the release of military power with a glass of wine, the Jiedu envoys could no longer hand over the soldiers to their children, and the children had to work beside the officials, hone their skills in combat, administration, and financial management, and get the opportunity to prove themselves.
This group of young staff officers was holding back their desire to fight, and Zhao Kuangyin had to repeatedly restrain their impulses, but he also praised their momentum.
On the wall, there is a huge map of the situation around Jinling, and the direction of the three military horses is clearly marked.
Zhao Kuangyin wore a big cotton jacket and held a small jade axe in his hand, walking around, considering this strategy.
"What? Seo Hyun is here? Zhao Kuangyin asked.
"Exactly."
"Then pass him on quickly." Zhao Kuangyin said.
was stopped by Zhao Pu.
"Official, just see him like this?" Zhao Pu pointed to the padded jacket on Zhao Kuangyin's body.
Zhao Kuangyin took a look, it was indeed a little simpler.
"Wang Jien, go to the Yamen of the Bujun Army to transfer five hundred sword and axe hands!"
"Official! Official! Zhao Pu hurriedly stopped, "It's not to scare people, do you remember what Yongzhi said before he went to build a ship?" β
"Remember, he said that the heart is the best." Zhao Kuangyin said.
"Jiangnan people love to talk about literature and talk about clean talk, so we had better be fully prepared. Set up a table of wine at night, both civil and military, let Xu Xuan come in, listen to what he said, this person is like a river, if he really drops his bookbag, Lord Wang Pu can also help block it. Zhao Pu said.
Is Zhao Pu selfish? Yes.
But the main thing is public spirit.
The scribes in Jiangnan have always looked down on the military leaders of Bianliang, and when it comes to emperors like Chai Rong and Zhao Kuangyin, they often have subtle expressions.
Xu Xuan's knowledge, Jiangnan can be said to be the first, if it is really difficult to become an official, with his Zhao Pu's ability to read only half of the Analects, it will be difficult to relieve the emperor from the siege.
If it was on the occasion of a dinner party, and there was a university scholar Wang Pu, it would be easy to do.
Even if Lord Wang Pu loses to Xu Xuan, the situation will not be too bad.
And wine.
The civil and military officials who grew up in Henan can use the advantage of full alcohol consumption to put Lord Xu Xuan down.
"You have a point." Zhao Kuangyin nodded.
"Xu Xuan is not a simple character," Zhao Pu said, "Every time we arrange for young talents such as Zhongshu Sheren and Hanlin Bachelor to receive Xu Xuan, we will be humiliated and beaten by Xu Xuan." β
"In this way," Zhao Kuangyin said to Zhao Pu, "Wang Jien passed on my will, and transferred Duan Zishou from the guards to receive Xu Xuan. β
"Official Shengming!"
Seo Hyun has met his opponent now.
In the past, the receptionists, per capita were born as Jinshi, and they robbed the other party of the other party, and they were in a good mood, and then went to the palace to engage in diplomatic work, which was like a river.
But when he saw Duan Zishou, he was taken aback.
Da Song really sent a fool to receive him.
This is the first time that Duan Zishou has received a task from him independently, and Ah Crisp is very worried and is ready to accompany him.
"Ah Crisp girl, this is the Holy Decree, the Holy Decree didn't let you accompany you, you have to let Ah Shou go by himself." Wang Jien explained with a smile.
"Don't worry, I'm the best at taking care of people." Duan Zishou was full of confidence.
Lord Xu Xuan is miserable now.
Duan Zishou accompanied him to lunch, and he ordered all the hard dishes, tendon cakes and noodles, beef and mutton, and the most gentle dish was the Yellow River carp, which was fried raw and crispy, where had Lord Xu Xuan ever seen this!
"Is there any soup ......?"
"Order a spicy soup for adults!"
ββ¦β¦β
"My lord, am I good to you?"
"Where do you start?"
"I'll invite you to eat a leg of mutton, whoever I like, I'll invite you to eat a leg of lamb."
When he said this, the stupid boy's hand was intentionally or unintentionally clasping Lord Xu's pulse.
"Good...... Good...... Of course it's good......"
Xu Xuan also tried to ask Duan Zishou what books he read.
As a result, Duan Zishou said first: "cough, I don't know how to read, I admire you people who can read, or you tell me a story tonight, my family has the Three Kingdoms, but no one tells me ......"
"Tonight, the official family will give a banquet, I'm afraid I won't be able to accompany you." Lord Seo Hyun looked depressed.
didn't warm up at the receptionist, Lord Xu Xuan was not in such a good state as usual, and he didn't enter the palace for a banquet until it got dark.
It was a heart-wrenching feast.
Lord Seo Hyun was extremely embarrassed in the position of the guest.
The civil and military forces of Bianliang City, the arrogance of the Wen, the sharpening of the knife Huo Huo, the young heroes and children, can't wait to rush up and spit on Xu Xuan and talk trash talk.
When Zhao Kuangyin came in, both civil and military forces suddenly calmed down, which made Xu Xuan very impressed.
"Minister Seo Hyun, see the official family." Seo Hyun said.
"Since you have come to confess your sins, you should call yourself a guilty minister, only a minister, what's the matter?" Wang Jien was the first to provoke and reprimand.
Xu Xuan didn't say a word, and the emperor was present, so he was not provoked by the eunuchs.
"What Wang Jien said is," Zhao Kuangyin said, "Xu Xuan, you can talk about it." β
"Xu Xuan may be guilty, but Jiang Nan is not at fault." Seo Hyun said.
"Li Yu is in charge of the army and entrenched in one side, how can he be innocent?" Lu Duosun spoke.
"If it is a sin to divide the army, then the sin of King Qian, why don't you see the court to collect it?" Seo Hyun asked.
With this, Lu Duosun was the first to retreat.
"It is indeed a sin to pretend to be an honorific title and to confront the imperial court." Jin King Zhao Guangyi said.
"The honorific title has long been removed, and the forbidden things have been destroyed, and the official family has issued an edict to praise this matter, and this matter should not be used to accuse Jinling of trespassing." Lord Seo Hyun said.
"If you don't pay taxes, how can you count the land and people of the Great Song Dynasty?" Zhao Pu said.
This sentence is best dismissed.
"Last year, Jiangnan has presented an atlas, and it is okay to collect taxes at any time." Seo Hyun said.
Lord Wang Pu twisted his beard and didn't speak, now it is like a group of people looking for the crime of the Jiangnan Lord, if they can't find it, everyone can be passive.
Finally, Zhao Guangmei, the king of Wei, spoke: "You connived at witches to commit murder in the court!" β
"It was an accident, the lord of Jiangnan has already stripped that woman's title of princess and expelled her from the court." Lord Seo Hyun said it well.
A group of people are already tired in momentum, and if you want to talk about debate, everyone is square when they are combined, and they are not Xu Xuan's opponents.
"Official, Jiangnan is not guilty!" Lord Seo-hyun fell to his knees.
In this situation, Zhao Kuangyin could only play tricks, and he held down the sword in his hand.
"Don't be a fool! On the side of the couch, how can you allow others to snore! β
That's all it takes.
When Zhao Kuangyin was young, after all, he was a gambler, and he was also a good player.
"Official! Li Yu is really like a father to a son! There are no two hearts! Lord Seo Hyun was not convinced, but he was also unconvinced in his heart.
With this kind of majestic atmosphere, even if the victory is announced in the cheers of the people around him, I am afraid that he will be ridiculed by the Jiangnan scribes.
At this time, the door of the temple was pushed open.
This man was in the dust, apparently after a long journey.
This is Xu Yongzhi, who has just returned from the naval camp in Dongting Lake.
"Lord Seo Xuan, what you said is completely wrong!"
"Yongzhi!" Zhao Kuangyin was overjoyed.
"You said that the lord of Jiangnan is like a son being filial to his father, so let me ask the son and the father, can they live separately? What kind of filial piety is this? Xu Yongzhi stared at Lord Xu Xuan.
Seo Hyun was stunned at the time.
This statement is ruthless and accurate, and there is no room for refutation at all.
"Li Yu has a house in Bianjing, and he is now living in Beijing, which can ensure the safety of his family." Xu Yongzhi said.
Zhao Kuangyin nodded and stabilized.
"Jie Du makes ......" Xu Xuan really panicked now.
"As for the question of your innocence, did you take down Li Forsythia? She hurt Xia Xiaogui, the wife of Wu Guo who was sealed by the official family of the Great Song Dynasty, do you think this is a serious crime? Xu Yongzhi said.
Wonderful.
Prime Minister Zhao Pu secretly praised Xu Yongzhi's attack on the old man and fierce, like an old official with a criminal name.
"If I want to say that I shouldn't give a banquet, I should give you a flail when I come up, first ask you about the disadvantage of assisting and letting the eldest princess of Jiangnan cause trouble to the court," Xu Yongzhi stared at Xu Xuan step by step, "But the official family is merciful, he pities the scholars, he said that you are the future of the world of great governance, and you can't just hand it over to Tingwei to be humiliated, and the long-term peace and stability of the Great Song Dynasty still need the scribes of Jiangnan." β
This is where Xu Yongzhi is clever, obviously the leader is the one who wants to solve the problem roughly, and he persuades the leader to attack the heart, but when he says it in public, the wise person is always the leader, the rough person, and he will always say himself.
"Official!" Lord Seo Hyun fell to the ground and cried.
The olive branch thrown by the Great Song Dynasty has successfully divided the Jiangnan scribes and Li Yu represented by Lord Xu Xuan.
But Lord Seo Hyun still decided to try hard again and make a last stand:
"Official, our lord is extremely talented, and his poetry is excellent, especially that one."
"Read it and hear it." Zhao Kuangyin said.
Zhao Pu pinched a handful of sweat at that time, why did Zhao Kuangyin talk to Xu Xuan about poetry in a good manner, this is not his strength.
Lord Xu Xuan read it, and the surrounding ministers became silent, which is indeed good.
"Hahahaha," Zhao Kuangyin laughed loudly, "This is Han Shi's poem, Li Yu wrote such a poem, how can he be a man?" I don't read such poems. β
Xu Xuan now found a reason to be dissatisfied.
"You can do it, you can do it" is always a way to overwhelm the other party.
"Please try to recite your own poems, so that the scribes in Jiangnan can open their eyes." Seo Hyun said.
Now Lord Wang Pu was a little nervous.
"Before leaving the sea of thousands of mountains and inks, I arrived at Zhongtian Wanguo Ming ......," Zhao Kuangyin read calmly.
This man works hard.
From the Chenqiao Mutiny to today, for 14 years, I have been reading history books, the art of war, and the essentials of governing the country.
In the past 14 years, the changes in people have been obvious, and the temperament of the whole person has also changed.
He is naturally open-minded, and he works extra hard among people with patterns.
"Ah, just these two sentences, the ability to really write poems on the spot, really can't do it." Zhao Kuangyin said with a smile.
Xu Xuan was already trembling, he was also writing about the moon, and Zhao Kuangyin was actually writing about the feelings of the world on the moon.
"Before I was in the yellow robe, I also wrote two verses of the sun, and there are two sentences, called: A round of heaven in an instant, driving away the waning moon and stars."
Poetry and Words.
Although there is no work or literature to talk about, this momentum is enough to rub Lord Xu Xuan and Li Yu down.
Seo Hyun knelt on the ground and shouted "Long live".
"Don't harm a country for one person, Xu Qing, many people, I will entrust you in the future." Zhao Kuangyin comforted Xu Xuan and successfully mended the knife.
That night, Seo Hyun was drunk.
The cadres of Bianliang are very good at putting people down, but the poets in Jiangnan are not weak, and they have struggled for a few rounds.
Wang Jien also arranged for Lord Xu to serve two women.
All forces are speeding away from Li Yu.
After the banquet was dispersed, Zhao Kuangyin left Xu Yongzhi.
"How's the troll?"
"It's going well, the fleet is training with the soldiers." Xu Yongzhi said.
"It may be sooner than we think, this autumn, I will issue an order to recruit Li Yu."
