In fact, there are a small number of people who understand the meaning of Fan Qian. As a leftist minister, Fan Zhen's desperate request for military power is not for the purpose of fighting a war at all. But his military order is a bit excessive, if the Khitan does not withdraw the army, he really can't help it.

Only a very small number of people understood Fan Zhen's true plan, but these people could only remain silent, because Fan Zhen's bet was too big, and if he lost the bet, everything would be over.

Of course, even if he loses the bet, he will be killed at most, Lei Hong's blood relatives will not be killed, even if Lei Fang's soldiers who are bent on dying in Da Zhou will not dare to touch her in the slightest, but Fan Zhen will never escape from it.

Obviously, Fan Zhen is so eager to get the military power in order to restrict Zhao Kuangyin, the first emperor Chai Rong's bones are not cold, and the new emperor Chai Zongxun ascended the throne at the age of 7, at this time it is indeed too dangerous for Zhao Kuangyin to leave Bianliang with a large number of troops. But the Khitan pressed the realm, Yeluzhen brought the troops back to take revenge, and at this time, he could only let Zhao Kuangyin lead the troops over, and no one except him could restrain Yeluzhen, even Fan Qian.

Although Fan Zhen's behavior was very great, he overestimated his luck too much, and underestimated Yeluzhen's strength.

Of course, there are a few people who really understand the meaning of Fan Zhen. He didn't really want to fight with Yeluzhen, but he was making a bet, he was betting that Yeluzhen didn't go to Cangzhou at all, and there was no Khitan army to press the border. The whole thing is a lie, and the purpose of this lie is to let Zhao Kuangyin leave Bianliang smoothly after getting the military power.

Zhao Kuangyi and Fu Xuande are engaged, and Zhao Kuangyin has established a strong relationship with Fu Yanqing. At this time, Chai Rong was dead, and Fu Yanqing also needed an extremely strong supporter to ensure his status in today's society.

Although Fu Xuanci is not bad as the queen mother, although Fu Yanqing knows that his daughter is not a ruler, if she is allowed to continue like this, the national strength of the Great Zhou will only slowly decline, which is not a good thing for him.

At this time, Fu Yanqing would also choose to support Zhao Kuangyin's rebellion and claim the emperor, so he would make up this lie so that Zhao Kuangyin's plan could be implemented smoothly.

After all, Zhao Kuangyin had been in Cangzhou for so long at that time, and he had enough time to discuss these things with Fu Yanqing. So Fan Zhen dared to make this bet, he gambled that the whole thing was a lie, and Fan Zhen had great confidence, so he dared to bet on the lives of the whole family.

After all, Fan Zhen couldn't watch Zhao Kuangyin leave with his troops, because as long as Zhao Kuangyin led his troops to leave Bianliang, the Great Zhou would be destroyed. Regardless of whether the matter of the Khitan pressure is true or not, as long as Fan Zhen leads the troops out, then Zhao Kuangyin's chances of success will drop a lot.

There are several people who understand, and they are all people who know Fan Zhen and Zhao Kuangyin very well. Wang Bo and Li Gu just didn't want to participate in such a struggle, so they resigned and wanted to enjoy their old age in peace. At such times, they will not take a stand.

Taking a stand is a very meaningful thing to do, but at the same time it is extremely dangerous. The victor will not care how much power this person has, or how much power there is behind it, as long as he knows that the object of this person's allegiance is not his side, after the victory, there will be a ruthless purge, and those who have not supported or opposed him will definitely be punished as they deserve.

Of course, there will be some exceptions to this, just like Fan Zhen, who is smart and capable, and has great power in his family, even if Fan Zhen has always opposed Zhao Kuangyin, there is no big problem, Zhao Kuangyin will not risk provoking Lei Hong.

Wang Bo and Li Gu resigned in order to avoid this kind of internal struggle, and of course they could not make their position clear here, because this matter had nothing to do with them, and they just didn't want to get involved. Wei Renpu can't speak, because he still wants to continue to be an official, whether Fan Qianying or Zhao Kuangyin winning, it is the same for him, it is too dangerous to press the chips on one side, and the benefits are too small.

Wei Renpu is now the secretary of the Ministry of War, and for him, even if the side he supports wins, his status is nothing more than being promoted to prime minister. Is it really better to be a prime minister than a secretary of the military department? Not necessarily.

The current Fan quality is to get on the bar with Zhao Kuangyin for a little military power, he wants military power to stop Zhao Kuangyin's ambitions, but as a prime minister, it is too difficult to get military power.

However, the military department is different, although the book itself does not have military power, but the military power belongs to him. Therefore, the status of the military department is not lower than that of the prime minister. So Wei Renpu doesn't need to take risks for such a little promotion. Although this kind of wall grass is not likable, and it is even possible to be demoted, these are also within Wei Renpu's range.

Fan Zhen's behavior was praised by several people, but everyone else thought he was crazy. In the eyes of ordinary people, Fan Zhen's behavior is indeed unreasonable, in order to fight with Yeluzhen, he actually used the lives of his whole family to make a military order, and his so-called military order is to retreat the Khitan, instead of defending Cangzhou.

This is also on top of the Golden Palace, otherwise Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin, who have a good relationship, would have rushed up and knocked Fan Zhen to the ground, and then tied him up to calm down for a few days. Although this is a bit excessive, it can clear Fan Zhen's mind for a while, and he will not do such stupid things after he calms down.

But this is under the Golden Palace, the new emperor Chai Zongxun is watching, and the Empress Dowager Fu Xuanci is listening in the back, who dares to rush up to beat a prime minister in this situation? Not to mention that Zhang Yongde and Li Chongjin are not confident that they can beat Fan Zhen, although Fan Zhen is a civil official, but his martial arts have always been good, since he has had an adventure after going to Yedu, his internal strength is no longer comparable to these ordinary people.

"Master Fan, you're crazy~ Even if you're crazy, it's okay, you don't want to wipe your neck with a knife alive, why drag your family to die with you?" Zhao Kuangyin said angrily: "You were raised by your biological parents, isn't Sister Lei Fang raised by your biological parents? Aren't the servants in your family equal? Everyone in the world is equal, you bastard wants to die and drag other people, what qualifications do you have to be a husband and a man-oriented? How could Sister Lei Fang take a fancy to you as a bastard, one person does things and one person is the one, what kind of manly husband is you dragging the whole family to back. ”

Zhao Kuangyin also had no choice but to open his mouth and scold, and used the theory of equality that Zong Xin taught him before, and the scolding was quite enjoyable. However, after scolding, Zhao Kuangyin himself also felt that it made sense, although Fan Zhen was very smart, but his trick just now was indeed a fatal loophole, even if he used his own head as a guarantee Zhao Kuangyin had nothing to refute, but he took the life of the whole family as a guarantee, Zhao Kuangyin instantly felt that he had found a breakthrough.

Fan Zhen was speechless when he scolded these words, and even Fan Zhen himself was stunned, because he couldn't refute what Zhao Kuangyin said, and Zhao Kuangyin scolded very reasonably. Fan Zhen is definitely not the kind of person who is unreasonable, because he is someone else's reason, he can stand more firmly than him.

"Fan Zhen, you self-righteous thing. Do you think that as the prime minister of a dynasty, your life is more valuable than others? Your wife, children, and servants deserve to die with you? You just read a few more books, what's the big deal?" Zhao Kuangyin said: "I was born recklessly in Emperor Taizu, and I still created a grand event in the world, but Emperor Taizu thought that every common person was as important as his own life, and your merits were higher than Emperor Taizu? Then why should you? If Lei Hong heard this, he would immediately break you into ten thousand pieces. It's no wonder that you have no status in front of Lei Hong, everyone in the Lei King's Mansion has drunk the blood of the Qilin, but you are not the only one, because you are not worthy. This is only the father of one of them, if you don't have this martial arts, the parents of the servants in the house will hear you say this, and they will definitely eat you alive to relieve the hatred in their hearts. ”

Shame, shame of Chiguoguo. Fan Zhen was said to have almost lost the courage to live, if the skin was a little thinner. Fan Zhen has never been said to be so lowly, but this time Fan Zhen can't refute it, because that's what he thinks in his heart.

Zhao Kuangyin scolded right, perhaps in the eyes of others, taking the life of a family and Zhao Kuangyin to the end is a supreme dedication, a kind of upright performance. But Fan Zhen is a very reasonable person, there is no problem with Zhao Kuangyin's reasoning, Fan Zhen can't refute it, and he bows his head to accept the lesson.

Zhao Kuangyin's truth is correct, but it is not easy for anyone in the world today to understand this truth, and the only person who really practices it is Emperor Taizu Guo Wei. Because of this, Fan Zhen has always admired Guo Wei and is willing to work for him.

As a result, when it came to himself, Fan Zhen really couldn't do it. The reason why Fan Zhen thinks that Zhao Kuangyin's scolding is right is because he really thinks so, he feels that his life is much more important than ordinary people, not to mention the subordinates in the family.

"Well scolded. ”

～～～～～

A huge voice came from the sky, and many people knew this voice, but they couldn't believe that he would appear.

At this time, Fan Zhen just wanted to speak, but he was suddenly frightened by this voice and broke out in a cold sweat all over his body, because he could also hear whose voice it was. If those people were heard by him just now, how could he still live?

A flash of fire flashed straight towards the Golden Palace, and before he could react to what was going on, Zong Xin's hand had already grabbed Fan Zhen's neck, preventing him from saying another word.

"Fan Zhen, where is my sister sorry for you? I promoted you from a poor scholar to the prime minister of the dynasty, and constantly took money from my mother's family to subsidize your family, and I just got the essence of Medicine King Ding when I was in Yedu, and I don't want to put it all into your body, otherwise your martial arts are not as good as Zhang Yongde's waste." Zong Xin suddenly turned his head and said, "Zhang Yongde, I'm not insulting you, I'm just saying that your martial arts are not very good." ”

"It's okay, it's my honor to be insulted by you. ”

Both of them are courtiers, and their relationship is very close, because their wives are sisters, and Zhang Yongde's son even worshiped Zongxin and became his disciple, so it stands to reason that the identities of the two should be the same. But in fact, the status is very different, and it is not at the same level at all.
