The lecture hall fell silent. Look at the book

After a few more breaths, Lu Shen spoke:

"I guessed it."

His tone still didn't fluctuate much, and he didn't look at Xu Qian when he spoke, but looked at the closed door not far away.

The iron sheet on the corners of the door was already rusty, and the cracks in the door were bigger than last year, and they looked more and more dilapidated.

Regardless, the door is still closed. Although it is not so tightly closed, it is also badly worn in some places.

Perhaps, because the door is so old, some people want to open it from the inside, and some people push it desperately outside.

But at least here and now, on this ordinary autumn morning, the gate is still firmly closed, and everything inside is still under its protection. No matter how difficult it is, most people finally have a place to stand.

"The Joint Investigation Division is here, and the Changfeng Battalion is here." Xu Qian opened his mouth abruptly, as if he was explaining and defending himself.

As he spoke, he spread his two fat palms in front of his knees, thinking to himself that he had spread out as much as he could.

There are no eggs under the nest, he believes that Lu Shen will understand and understand this truth.

"Is this what the officials mean?"

Lu Shen withdrew his gaze from the door and turned his head to look at Xu Qian.

It was a demeanor and tone that stripped away all emotions, and what it showed was also the standard etiquette of subordinates to superiors.

Not a little more, not a little more.

"Your Majesty agreed." Xu Qian didn't care, stroked his beard, and his expression was very pleasant.

It can be seen that he is in a very good mood, even if he is sitting, he has a sense of high spirits, which is more real than Fang Cai's generous statement.

Lu Shen was silent for a moment, and said slowly, "Your Majesty still chose the Jin Kingdom."

In fact, from the moment he saw Xu Qian, this thought had faintly surfaced in his mind, but he always refused to think like this, thinking that it was just an illusion.

Now he realized that he had indeed given birth to a delusion, and that he was wrong 108,000 miles away, which was ridiculous and ridiculous.

"Yes. That's what Your Majesty meant."

Xu Qian looked at Lu Shen with pity and approval, and sighed, "You are really smart, exactly like your father back then."

Lu Shen sat expressionlessly, as if he hadn't heard.

Xu Qian seemed to be immersed in the past, the expression on his face softened again, and he looked at the only young son of his deceased colleague in front of him, and said gently:

"I know you're not feeling well, and you can't get over that hurdle. Don't talk about you, how can I feel good in my heart? Aren't I also sulking?"

He looked up to the sky and sighed, his face was full of helplessness, and he couldn't express his ambitions, and said, "It's just that you and I are both Song Chen, and we should put the country first and the overall situation first.

Now that the war in the west is stalemate, the grain and grass are tight, and the Liao dog is waiting to bite off a piece of meat from the body of the Great Song Dynasty. At this juncture, whatever hatred you have, you have to let go of it, and first pass this difficult problem in front of you."

As if he was afraid that Lu Shen would not listen, he said in an accentuated tone, almost persuasively: "You are a good boy and a good courtier, Your Majesty has always cherished you, you have to fight for yourself, don't let down Your Majesty's love."

These words are obviously not as simple as they seem on the surface, but there is a deeper meaning hidden in them.

However, Lu Shen's indifference was as always, and his dark pupils were like an abyss, cold and cold, making people feel cold.

He lowered his eyes and said, "The lower official still wants to ask Xu Shizhi again, what conditions did Jin Guo propose?"

He hooked his lips at the ground, as if smiling, "They can't just form an alliance with the Great Song Dynasty with empty words, right? With the temperament of the Jin people, if the Great Song Dynasty does not give up a few cities, they will never agree to do this loss-making deal."

"You-" Xu Qian shook his head and smiled generously, not bothering with this young man, but said in a relaxed tone:

"Some earlier

The secret report of the Jin State at that time, or did you hand it over to me, why don't you remember? The old emperor of the Jin Kingdom is critically ill, the crown prince and the six princes are fighting each other, and they are not monolithic, there are still many places to talk about."

He seemed unwilling to continue the topic, got up and stroked his sleeve: "The envoy of the Jin State will arrive in Beijing in a few days, and you will know when the time comes."

After glancing at Lu Shen again, he walked towards the door of the lecture hall, his broad back was cut by the morning light from the panes, coiled on the muddy floor, winding like a snake.

He suddenly stopped again and looked back.

Because he was against the light, he couldn't see the expression on his face, and there was only a dark shadow on his face, blurred a little distant.

"From now on, all operations of the Changfeng Battalion in the Kingdom of Jin will be immediately halted, and all manpower will be withdrawn within three months. In the future, the Changfeng Battalion has only one goal - the Liao State."

He raised his hand and pointed to the case behind Lu Shen: "This official has already put the official document on the case, you can read it yourself."

He turned and walked to the door, reached out and grabbed the rusty deadbolt, and suddenly said, "Your order will arrive in the next day."

With that, he pushed the door open and walked out. …………

When Lu Shen received the order, it was already two days later.

Xu Qian's sudden inspection was like the sluggish secretary of the Joint Investigation Department suddenly opening an eye.

You think it's awake, but it's just an occasional frightening dream, and soon it falls back into a deep sleep, and Lu Shen's dispatch that he received two days late is proof that it's still drowsy.

Facts have shown that when it does not involve its own interests, the Joint Investigation Department, like other dispensable officials in the Great Song Dynasty, is nothing but nothing, and its work efficiency is also terrifyingly low.

"Let's ...... Later...... Change...... Investigated?"

In the open space of the Changfeng Battalion, the battalion Zheng Xiao reluctantly completed the last move of the stone lock, and fell to the ground on his back, gasping for breath.

Every few days, the top battalion officer of the Changfeng Battalion would come to the school to do his activities, and today is no exception.

Lu Shenxuan stood solemnly aside, holding a long knife in his hand, and said in a deep voice, "Yes, Xiao Yingzheng. The order of the lower official has come down, and it is estimated that the camp will have to wait a few more days."

The main camp officer of the Changfeng Battalion is from the fifth grade, and his actual position is half a step greater than Lu Shen, but his Jilu official is the same as Lu Shen, and he is also from the fifth grade, and he is the envoy of Yanfu Palace.

The envoy of Yanfu Palace is a serious class official, but when he talks about it in detail, he has a higher status than Xu Qian, who was born in a horizontal class.

However, the official system of the Great Song Dynasty has always been cumbersome, and it has changed again and again since the founding of the country, and when the two envoys of the Joint Investigation Department were really in power, they were more powerful than the subordinates of several governors and deputy ministers in Zhongshu Province.
