The person who came lowered his head and entered the tent, and when there was no one else, he slowly raised his head, and then smiled at Bao Zheng with his teeth.

"Meng Youde?"

Finally seeing the person clearly, Bao Zheng couldn't help but exclaim loudly.

Although he had a hunch that the person who came would be Meng Youde, when this person really appeared in front of him, he was still taken aback.

"How did you get in?" Thinking that there were a lot of Song Jun outside, Bao Zheng asked.

"It's been a long time since Bao Xianggong, hehe, how did you get in? As long as you have money, there's nothing you can't do." Meng Youde said with a smile on his face and very confidently.

The Dragon Empire is very rich, and the funds allocated to Long Yin every year are also considerable, which makes Meng Youde naturally much smoother when he starts to do things.

Zhao Song is known as the rich Song Dynasty, but not everyone is rich, the real rich are only those magnates, gentry and local landlords, like ordinary people, including ordinary soldiers, life is still poor.

Especially after Suzhou, Changshu and other places were occupied by Li Tang, a large part of the taxes in the entire south were saved, and in order to allow the imperial court to continue to operate normally, the court had to increase the taxes of the people.

The increase in taxes has directly led to the deterioration of the quality of life of the people at the bottom, and even the military expenses have to shrink. When Meng Youde appeared in the barracks with a large sum of money, money was naturally invincible.

"Hehe, yes, it's really easy to have money." Hearing this explanation, a wry smile also appeared on Bao Zheng's face.

I have been in the barracks for a while, and I naturally have an understanding of the income of the soldiers. In his opinion, soldiers who fight for the country only have such a small military salary, which is really too low.

But so what, although he is a privy envoy, he is not under his control of the income of the sergeants.

In fact, not only did he not manage it, but on the contrary, he had to avoid talking about it, otherwise, if he followed it and complained, it would definitely have a very bad impact once it was introduced into the army.

Not saying that it doesn't mean that some things haven't happened, Meng Youde said that if you have money, you can come in, and Bao Zheng understands this very well. "Okay, let's talk about it, what happened to come over this time, although with my relationship with Brother Shi, I can treat you as if you haven't been here, but once someone else finds out, then I won't come forward to protect you."

"Don't worry, Bao Xianggong, the matter of my coming here is very secret, and no one else will know about it. And even if it is known, Bao Xianggong, do you think someone will embarrass me? At most, it's just a gift for me to leave the country." Meng Youde smiled very confidently, looking like he didn't look at this place as a Song army camp.

As soon as he said this, Bao Zheng was a little dumbfounded.

Although Meng Youde had a hint of frivolity in his words, it cannot be denied that he did have a reason.

With Zhao Song's urine nature, even if he found Meng Youde here and knew his true identity, he would not dare to do anything to him.

Meng Youde is a person from the Dragon Empire, if they dare to do something to this person, it will be tantamount to offending the Dragon Empire, which is definitely not the result that those old men in the court want to see. At that time, in order to appease the anger of the Dragon Empire, it was inevitable that they might even hand over the people who were embarrassed by Meng Youde.

Even with such a result, then who would do such a thankless thing?

"Tell me what you are coming from." Bao Zheng thought of this, and didn't plan to argue with Meng Youde, there were some things that he couldn't change in the first place, even if this was the case, it was better not to say it, so as not to be angry.

Meng Youde didn't get unforgiving, and when he talked about business, he also said with a very serious face: "Xianggong Bao, my subordinates came this time to serve the will of our Majesty, please help."

"Help? Are you kidding? Your Dragon First Emperor is very majestic now, he first destroyed Goryeo, and now he has swallowed the entire Liao Kingdom, and his strength is stronger than our Zhao Song, do you still want to ask the old man for help?" Bao Zheng said as if he had heard a big joke.

Meng Youde listened to this

Later, he said with a serious face: "Bao Xianggong, it's different."

"Oh, how different, I want to hear about it." Bao Zheng had a smile on his face, but there was obviously some mockery, in his opinion, Meng Youde was looking for help from himself, and he just wanted to insult himself.

"As Bao Xianggong said, with the strength of our current Dragon Empire, it will not be very difficult to defeat Zhao Song, or even destroy you, just like destroying Goryeo and Liao. But Zhao Song is too different from them."

"Zhao Song is the land of the Han Dynasty, and it is full of Han people, and our Dragon First Emperor's greatest wish is to let the Han people stand at the top of this world, and there is no one. Then how could they really want to hurt the Han Chinese?"

"If he could, the First Dragon Emperor wanted to take this place without blood. But presumably Bao Xianggong also knows that this is simply impossible. So we never do such delusions, we just want to take this place at the lowest cost, or the Han people who die the least. And if you want to do that, you need too many Han people."

"Bao Xianggong, you had a good relationship with our Majesty before, and Your Majesty has always regarded you as an elder, so this time I came to get Bao Xianggong's cooperation, hoping to die fewer Han people, so as to retain more vitality and continue to fight the world."

Meng Youde said this very sincerely, and listening to Bao Zheng's ears, his face changed again and again.

He didn't expect that Su Shi's purpose was so ambitious that he wanted the Han people to stand on the top of this world, and they were still the only ones.

Thinking that Zhao Song lived in the Central Plains, it can be said that he has a large land, a large population, and a lot of money, but he is only barely able to cope with the current situation. It seems that in their periphery, there is Liao in the north and Western Xia in the west. From time to time, Fuso attacked on the eastern sea, and only the southern side was relatively stable, but that was only because it was located in a wild place and the transportation was inconvenient, so it did not attract enemies over there.

In this way, it is not an exaggeration to say that Zhao Song is embattled. It's just that because of inconvenient transportation, too many troops, and too many food and grass issues, some things have not broken out.

But that doesn't mean it's going to be that easy to clean them up. On the contrary, if one is not done well, the defeat of the army may shake the foundation, and it is not impossible to appear.

Just like the dynasties, when they were strong, why didn't they think about expanding outward?

Is it because those emperors are not ambitious?

Of course not, it's just that many things don't depend on personal will. Many things are empty and powerless, and in the end I have to give up a lot of ideas.

It's good that Su Shi has an idea, but can he really do what other emperors can't?

Bao Zheng thought about it carefully, and it seemed that it could really be done. After all, since Su Shi first entered the Liao Kingdom in the north, he has never been worried about the army's logistics and grass. It seems that his army can eat well wherever they go, and even sometimes, live well.

The reason is that there is a secret trade route, but no matter how many people go to look for it, there is no trace of it. After a long time, no one thought to explore this secret.

And if only Su Shi can contact this trade route, then he said that it is not necessarily impossible to let the Han people stand on the top of this world.

Bao Zheng was still thinking about it, and here Meng Youde spoke again, "Bao Xianggong, Your Majesty said that you are a good official and a capable official. When I left Zhao Song before, I thought about taking you with me, but considering the conditions and environment at the time, I was afraid that you would not agree, so I didn't mention it. But now, Zhao Yun let those people dare to kill even the emperor and the prince in order to achieve their own goals, so what else can't they do?"

"With someone like that, anything can happen. My Majesty said that as your junior, whether it is public or private, it is necessary for him to take you out of here now to ensure your safety."

"My majesty also said that everything he does is for the sake of the Han people in the world. You understand, he will do it. If you don't understand, he will do it. And in order to achieve this goal, His Majesty will continue to work hard, in the process, no matter who it is

Standing in front of him, that would only become his enemy. But at the same time, if you want to achieve the goal, you can't rely on the efforts of one person, and you need the help of many capable ministers like Bao Xianggong."

"Your Majesty said that he would fight in all directions until one day, all the dragon banners were in sight, and all the Han land was in sight. And this requires a lot of people to educate the Quartet. The military occupation is only temporary, but the intellectual and cultural occupation may last longer."

"Our Majesty wants to ask Bao Xianggong, don't you want to educate the Quartet and make your own contribution to the strength and rise of the Han people, so as to leave your name for eternity?"

Forever!

As soon as he said this, Bao Zheng couldn't help but be shocked all over his body.

Since ancient times, there are few people who do not want to be famous in history, and even this is the goal that many people pursue in their lives.

It's just a pity that there aren't many people who can actually do this.

Whether it is to leave a name in history or to educate the Quartet, this is what people of true insight want to do the most. Now Su Shi has put this possibility in front of everyone, and it is conceivable how much psychological touch it will bring to Bao Zheng.

Bao Zheng still didn't speak, but there was already some excitement in his whole body, which was enough to show that he was starting to be moved at this moment.

Meng Youde is a very observant master, seeing Bao Zheng's complexion change, he continued: "Bao Xianggong, the rich master has begun to educate the barbarians, and participated in the governance and education of Goryeo and Liao, in this regard, Bao Xianggong has fallen behind a little, if you don't seize the opportunity, you will only lose more opportunities."
