A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1,231 Shen An, This Is All Your Fault.

The financial dilemma of the Song Dynasty was firstly due to various expenses and secondly, the lack of money.

The currency of the Song Dynasty was mainly copper coins, but copper coins were difficult to make! There is only so much every year, and we cannot give more financial support.

And the banknotes came into being, giving Zhao Shu hope.

However, both the Third Secretary and Shen An were very cautious when mentioning the circulation of banknotes and were unwilling to damage the credibility of banknotes.

Of course, credibility cannot be destroyed, but how to break the situation?

Zhao Shu thought about this and used gold and silver as a guarantee, but there was no gold and silver in the Song Dynasty!

Now his son told him that the Song Dynasty did not have much gold and silver, but the foreign vassals did, and we could get it through trade.

"Dali Pill..." Zhao Shu couldn't help but laugh when he thought of the cost of Dali Pill, "That guy is just a profiteer. If Tang Ren goes to Liao this time, he will probably trick a lot of people."

"Dad, it's not just a scam."

Zhao Xu said seriously: "This scam will involve countless people in the Liao Kingdom, and eventually make them stop thinking about production and only think about making money with Dali Pill... This is weakening the Liao people from the foundation."

"Young man!" Zhao Shu suddenly felt that he was too old to keep up with the thinking of these young people.

The family walked around slowly, and finally turned to Yulin Lane.

"Chen Zhongheng is planning to buy a house later."

Zhao Shu felt that Chen Zhongheng, whose old house was on fire, was ridiculous, "If it hadn't been Shen An this time, he would have almost been deceived."

Zhao Qianyu thought of her little friend Guoguo and said unbearably: "Dad, let's go to Shen's house for a cup of tea. I'm thirsty."

Zhao Shu glanced at her and thought that the whole family just drank Erchen soup, who is thirsty?

This is just fun.

"Walk."

Zhao Shu took the lead and the family poured into Yulin Lane.

Zhang Baibian went to knock on the door himself. The door opened. When Chen Luo saw it was him, he smiled and said, "Does Zhang know you are here to ask for hot sauce?"

Damn it!

Zhang's eight-year-old face turned red instantly.

He also liked the hot sauce, but the best hot sauce in Bianliang was from the Shen family. Shen An gave him some as a gift, but he became addicted to it. Later, the Shen family sent some one after another, and he ate them as well.

But now the official family is here!

What would he think if he heard it?

This is narrow-minded.

Zhang Baibian turned sideways, and Zhao Shu appeared behind him calmly.

Chen Luo was almost frightened and said hurriedly: "Guardians, please come in quickly."

After seeing Gao Taotao and several princesses, Chen Luo was already numb.

Is the royal family preparing to move to Yulin Lane again?

"Dad, it turns out our house is next door!"

Zhao Qianyu still remembers that the residence his family lived next door to the Shen family after they were 'kicked out' by the county prince's palace.

Zhao Shu nodded, recalling the years before entering the palace, he couldn't help but feel a little crazy.

Shen An's family came out to greet him, Huahua ran beside him, and finally ran to Zhao Qianyu's side.

Zhao Qianyu said happily: "Guoguo, Huahua still remembers me!"

Guoguo said proudly: "Well, Huahua is smart, smarter than many people."

"Yes, I think he is smarter than my second brother."

Zhao Hao was innocently shot.

A green shadow flashed, and Shen An couldn't help but groan inwardly when he saw it.

Why did this parrot stay at home honestly today?

Lu Mao gradually became familiar with the environment and dared to go out for adventure, but he never found his kind and felt very lonely.

"If you want to succeed, go crazy first and rush forward with a simple mind..."

Well!

Zhao Shu felt that these words sounded familiar and looked at Zhao Xu.

"This... is what is said in the academy."

Zhao Shu nodded, smiled at Shen An, and praised: "It's hard for you to think of such inspiring words, not bad."

Shen An was happy when he heard this, "I just thought about it randomly. In fact, there are some more radical ones. I will wait to release them later, for example..."

Lu Mao stood on Zhao Wuwu's shoulder and suddenly said: "Lang Jun, what are you going to do?"

It still imitated a female voice...

In an instant, Shen An wanted to die.

Zhao Wuwu lowered his head, feeling that he also wanted to die.

Yang Zhuoxue glanced at her and couldn't help but think about it.

Zhao Shu's cheeks trembled and he said, "I'm tired from walking. I have some good tea at home to quench my thirst."

"Yes." So Yang Zhuoxue took her family to the backyard, and Shen An received Zhao Shu and his son in the front yard.

After sitting down in the main hall, Zhuang Laoshi went to make tea himself, and then stood outside with his hands down. However, his feet began to tremble involuntarily. People who are familiar with him knew that this guy was quarreling again, and he would not be able to explain it later. I went out to brag, saying that the official family came to my house as guests. Who in Bianliang has this honor?

After Zhao Shu sat down, he took a look at the layout of the main hall, and then asked, "What do you think of the Liao Kingdom?"

After the people of the Song Dynasty and the Liao Dynasty severed the Sui currency, there was no possibility of long-term peace. Zhao Shu still had this consciousness.

This topic is a bit big. Shen An thought for a while and said: "Officials, the Liao Kingdom has been in decline since Yelu Hongji came to the throne. Yelu Hongji was right to worship Buddhism, but it was inappropriate to spend too much money. And he doesn’t know how to recognize people, so he made the court full of smoke and smoke..."

"Yes." Zhao Shu nodded, "To allow outsiders to spread rumors about his queen, Yelu Hongji really cannot control the situation of the court."

Zhang Baibian added: "In the official family, it is said that Xiao Guanyin admires Shen An..."

Is this Lao Zhang so exposed?

Shen An said embarrassedly: "That's just a rumor, a rumor."

He didn't know that Xiao Guanyin had now turned his admiration into admiration, otherwise he would definitely collapse.

The queen of a country actually falls in love with me. This is a death-defying rhythm!

After Yelu Hongji becomes angry, will he send countless people to assassinate me?

Zhang Bianba said secretly: "There is also Empress Liang of Xixia, who was in the northwest last time..."

Damn it!

Shen An glanced at Zhang Baba and thought to himself, Lao Zhang, do you want to fall out with your brother?

Zhang Baba said coldly: "According to the news from the Imperial City Division, Li Liangzuo and Mr. Liang have not slept together for a long time."

Shen An, this is all your fault!

Zhao Shu couldn't help being shocked.

"This...could it be a misunderstanding?"

The queen of Xixia actually had an affair with my minister... Why am I so happy about this?

Li Liangzuo, son, do you still dare to sneer now?

Zhao Shu was shocked on the surface, but extremely happy in his heart. He took a sip of tea and was burned.

"It must be a misunderstanding." Not only did Shen An have other things in mind, she was also worried that her daughter-in-law would have random thoughts.

Shen An quickly changed the topic, "If the official family abolishes the annual currency, Yelu Hongji will definitely think it is a great shame and humiliation. He will station troops on the border as a gesture..."

"Posture?" Zhao Shu asked: "Are you still sure that he will not overthrow the country and go south?"

"It's impossible right now."

Shen An said confidently: "The Liao Kingdom has been defeated several times in a row. If Yelu Hongji were to overthrow the country and go south, he would be gambling on the fate of the country, but would he dare?"

Zhao Xu said: "Although Song and Liao are now enemies, the Song Dynasty has not mobilized heavy troops in the north. In other words, the Song Dynasty does not currently pose a threat to the Liao people, so this is what Yelu Hongji is willing to do. Chance."

"That's mean." Zhao Shu didn't like the word "coy".

Zhao Xu said: "Dad, Yelu Hongji has this kind of temperament. Unless he is forced to the point of desperation, he will not bet on the destiny of the country. Think about the last battle at Yanmen Pass. He was almost burned to death, and then he was defeated in person. , and even vomited blood in the end, what a shame is this? But did he invade the country and go south? No, he just attacked Baozhou City in an attempt to regain the situation. This shows that this person's character is not that decisive. .”

Shen An added: "If he had been decisive, he should have used thunderous means to deal with Yelu Zhongyuan and his son instead of hiding it for many years."

A man who is a king should be patient, but what Yelu Zhongyuan and his son want is the country, how can they tolerate this?

It was time to deal with them with thunderbolts as soon as possible and shock all the officials.

Zhao Shu thought about it carefully, nodded and said: "Yelu Hongji's temperament...Zhang Baibian, what do you think they said?"

Zhang Ba said: "Your Majesty and Shen An are right. Officials, Yelu Hongji is indeed a little hesitant in doing things."

"This is an unexpected surprise."

If Yelu Hongji really had this kind of temperament, it would be a happy event for the Song Dynasty.

Zhao Shu smiled and said: "Da Lang has so much homework every day, but he is still quite knowledgeable about foreign affairs, which is good."

Zhao Xu had a pleading look on his face and just wanted to beg him to reduce his homework.

Zhao Shu ignored it and said to Shen An: "If it is according to what you said, how should the Song Dynasty respond at the border?"

As an emperor and in charge, he should ask his subordinates when something happens. That kind of emperor who knows everything has not appeared for many years.

Shen An thought for a while, "Guan Jia, I think the north should be on guard, and the front lines, such as Xiongzhou and other places, should have scouts everywhere. And Taiyuan, Zhending, and Hejian should stock up on food and grass, and those forbidden troops should also be mobilized. , Don’t be afraid of 10,000…just be afraid of what happens!”

"good!"

Zhao Shu said: "I thought that you were young and promising, and would be praised as a famous general. Who knew that you still remember the principle of caution? Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just be afraid of what happens. That's good."

Shen An stood up and said, "If possible, I would like to visit the north."

Yelu Hongji will definitely make moves, it just depends on the size of the moves.

"You..." Zhao Shu hesitated, "Your wife is pregnant, are you willing to leave?"

Shen An solemnly said: "The abolition of the annual currency was initiated by the king, but I also agreed with it. The king has already suffered the consequences, and naturally I should not fall behind. As for his wife and children... The Song Dynasty is everyone, and the Shen family It’s a small family, so I can naturally distinguish the important from the important.”

Zhao Xu now has a mountain of homework and is going crazy with worry every day.

Zhao Shu stood up and walked to him, suddenly patted his shoulder and said, "Okay."

One word "good" is enough to represent Zhao Shu's satisfaction.

He walked out of the main hall first. Zhao Xu fell behind and whispered to Shen An: "Why don't you say a good word for me? Wouldn't it be better if we go to the north together?"

"You are overthinking." Shen An said, "You have been there once, and it is enough to see some battle formations. If you go again... the officials will probably go crazy."

Kunimoto always runs to dangerous places in the north, UU reads www. uukanshu.net This is really going to drive people crazy.

Zhao Xu was depressed, "Then your wife is pregnant. Didn't you say that family is the most important thing before? How did you change your temper?"

In Shen An's heart, the Song Dynasty is naturally the most important, but family members are also the most important, and there is no distinction between high and low.

When Shen An saw no one outside, he smiled and said: "I will go to the north for up to half a year this time. I guess I won't need it. I will be back in three or four months. Zhuo Xue will be far away from giving birth at that time!"

"So you're just pretending to be loyal in front of my father?" Zhao Xu glanced at him with contempt.

Shen An smiled and said, "It's the Chinese New Year, so it's good to make the officials happy."

As he walked out of the main hall, he saw Zhao Shu standing by the pillar on the left with an expressionless face, while Zhang Bianba beside him seemed to be laughing, gloating about his misfortune.

Damn it!

The officials heard it!
