A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 1,263 The Responsible Fu Bi and the Alternative Shen An

"So many treasures!"

Shen An recently received a lot of gifts, including various calligraphy and paintings, and various antiques.

These things are sorted and put into storage one by one.

He took one last look, turned and left the storage room.

Zhuang Laoshi locked the door and swore that he was there and the key was there.

But Yang Zhuoxue felt it was unreliable, so he took a look every once in a while.

It was only after Shen An discovered that his wife had to visit the warehouse seven or eight times a day that something was wrong.

This...why does it look like obsessive-compulsive disorder?

This is where blessings and misfortunes lie!

"You are not allowed to go there from now on."

Shen An issued a ban and prohibited Yang Zhuoxue from going to the storage room again.

"Guanren, those are treasures!"

The Shen family is not short of money, but what is bad is their heritage.

The collection is an important indicator that reflects the heritage of a family.

For example, the Cao family, relying on the treasures that Cao Bin acquired during his campaigns in the north and south, became one of the most famous families in the capital.

If it had not been for Empress Dowager Cao entering the palace, the Cao family would be living a very good life now.

This time, the Shen family added a lot of collections to their home with the help of iron stoves and bathrooms. While Yang Zhuoxue was happy, she was also suspiciously worried that the things would be stolen.

It is not uncommon for women to suffer from various problems after pregnancy, and suspicion is one of them.

Shen An gave her the catalog of the collection and said, "If you have nothing to do, just look at this and don't bother with it over there."

"Mr. Lang, someone is looking for you."

Zhao Wuwu came in from outside, with his hands in his sleeves and leaning slightly, but the downward movement was not obvious.

Yang Zhuoxue muttered: "I'm afraid she's a lady from some family."

This bitch!

Shen An said angrily: "If I thought about your officials, they would have hidden their beauty in the golden house!"

He strode out, and Yang Zhuoxue's choking voice came from behind.

Why!

Every family has its own scriptures that are difficult to recite!

Shen An knew this was one of the side effects of pregnancy, so she could only endure it.

After arriving at the front, he was asked to deal with the envoy.

"Go and tell my wife that the officials are here to look for someone."

Zhao Wuwu bowed his head and agreed, feeling embarrassed.

How could the always generous lady become like this?

She turned around and went back. She felt a little tired on the way. When she saw that there was no one around, she put a hand on her chest.

Why!

very tired!

At the back, Yang Zhuoxue was wiping her tears while talking to Guoguo about Shen An's unreliability. Zhao Wuwu said, "Madam, someone from the palace came to call you."

Well!

Yang Zhuoxue, who was talking to Guoguo, was embarrassed.

Guoguo said sadly: "Sister-in-law, brother is very good!"

You two are always causing trouble, which gives me a headache!

There are all kinds of reactions during pregnancy, Shen An just complained a little and everything was over.

All the way to the street of the post house, Shen An knew that things were serious when he saw the situation outside the gate.

"Get out of the way!"

Shen An walked in and saw a door panel outside the post house. The messenger lying on the door panel was covered in blood.

Several Xixia people were kneeling on the edge, looking sad and angry.

His own envoy was forced to death, something even the Song Dynasty could not bear, let alone the flat-headed brother Xixia.

"Why did you commit suicide?"

Shen An asked calmly.

There was an official from the Song Dynasty nearby. Hearing this, he said, "I will commit suicide if I can't explain it."

"Bullshit!"

Shen An didn't believe this at all.

Of course, people at this moment will believe it.

History books often record some heroes who committed suicide in anger, especially envoys, who were unyielding in various ways.

So this kind of behavior can only be admired.

A Xixia man stood up and said: "The Song people are forcing me. Although Xixia is weak, they will not give in!"

These words were very tragic, but Shen An turned around and left.

Huh!

Right?

Several Xixia people were dumbfounded.

Shouldn't it be Shen Shen who asks and then proposes a solution?

But this man turned around and left. What does this mean?

Not to mention them, even the officials who were controlling the situation at the scene thought Shen An was a little weird.

In the palace, a dispute was taking place.

"Wang Min's dereliction of duty is certain."

Han Qi was very angry, "The Song Dynasty should not be entangled with Xixia at this moment, but once the envoy dies, it will be impossible not to get entangled. That... Prime Minister, are these your people, right? You sent these people to receive the envoy, An's What heart?"

This is really annoying!

Thinking of the atmosphere of common hatred and hatred in Xixia, even Zhao Shu had a headache.

If Xixia invades in large numbers, will the Liao people take the opportunity to take action?

Most likely!

Therefore, Shen An's idea of ​​leaving Xixia aside for the time being was highly recognized by everyone.

But now that the Xixia envoy is dead, what else can be done?

"This matter..." Fu Bi said sadly: "Your Majesty, I am guilty."

He really felt that he was wronged!

That Wang Min is doing this full-time, if he is not allowed to go, why should I be allowed to go?

Zhao Shu said: "This matter is complicated, let's see Shen An go and test it out."

But Han Qi said reluctantly: "Your Majesty, what will happen to those vassals once this matter comes out? They will stay away from the Song Dynasty. They will think that the Song Dynasty is an upstart, so they can't wait to defeat the Liao people. Show your majesty.”

Do you want me to step down or something?

When Fu Bi heard that Han Qi was on the line, he couldn't help but get angry and said: "Then Wang Min is the reception official. If I don't send him to receive him, who will I send? You, Han Qi, keep saying that I have bad intentions. What are your intentions?" I think you want me to leave the Privy Council, right?"

This directly exposed the conflict between him and Han Qi, leaving no room for a confrontation.

Han Qi said coldly: "This matter is not your fault, is it still my fault? Look, the Xixia people will definitely be furious, and no one can stop them! This is all the fault of the Privy Council and you, Fu Bi."

The showdown begins.

Zhao Shu looked at it expressionlessly, feeling very headache.

Han Qi went to the north. The inner demons of his defeat at Haoshuichuan were gone. What was left was how to remain famous as Prime Minister for eternity.

But his old enemy Fu Bi was restless in the Privy Council, and wanted to enter the political hall to have a fight with Han Qi.

It is a good thing for Zhao Shu that his ministers are enterprising.

But who is Lao Han?

Sometimes the late emperor couldn't help but say that he was domineering, and sometimes Zhao Shu wanted to slap him a few times.

Such an old man would not let go of the opportunity to seduce Fu Bi.

Fu Bi made a mistake this time, which is what later generations would call a leadership error.

Then Wang Min is your man, right? Under his persecution, the Xixia envoy was so angry that he stabbed himself to death. What do you say about this?

Fu Bi was helpless, but refused to bow his head, "If there is anything wrong, it is all my fault!"

Huh!

The emperor and his ministers could not help but look at him sideways.

Fu Bi’s words are very responsible!

It's all my fault!

These words put all the responsibilities on his shoulders.

At this moment, Fu Bi's body seemed to be shining, making it impossible to look directly at him.

What a good man!

Wang Min, who was kneeling beside him, couldn't help but choked up and said, "Ms. sir, it's my fault!"

Fu Bi said forcefully: "If this matter leads to bad consequences, I will bear the consequences!"

What a Fu Bi!

At this moment, even Bao Zheng wanted to nod to him.

Han Qi was slightly happy when he saw that he had set a trap, but his temper was like this. After setting a trap for others, he would feel a little guilty, so he felt a desire to make amends.

"If this matter is not his fault, I will personally apologize."

The Prime Minister will not bow to anyone easily, otherwise it will undermine his dignity.

This is an iron rule. In this era, cordiality often means that you can be contemptuous. As the prime minister of a country, you have to walk with authority.

And this is to apologize to the Privy Council!

Think about it, how long has the dispute between the two palaces in the Song Dynasty been going on? The Political Hall has always been wary of the Privy Council. After Han Qi entered the political hall, the ministers and ministers closed the door to discuss matters among themselves, and basically had nothing to do with the privy council.

This is to isolate the Privy Councilor, and when Fu Bi was Prime Minister, he often called Han Qi, the Privy Councilor at the time, to discuss matters, and he was very cordial. What now? Fu Bi has nothing to do with discussing issues in the political hall now.

Why does Fu Bi want to challenge Han Qi? Just for this.

If Han Qi went to the Privy Council to apologize, the whole Privy Council would probably tremble with joy.

But this matter...

Fu Bi looked at Wang Min and sighed in his heart, "Please go and verify this matter."

Now that he has become the master of suffering, he is naturally qualified to investigate.

Zhao Shu nodded and said: "Don't be anxious about this matter, don't get confused."

Fu Bi gratefully agreed.

"Your Majesty, Shen An would like to see you."

"Why is he here?" Zhao Shu nodded, and then said: "Didn't I ask him to deal with the envoy's death?"

Later, Shen An came in and after saluting, Zhao Shu asked, "Are the Xixia people okay?"

This is asking whether the Xixia people's emotions are stable.

"Your Majesty, I think there may be something wrong with this matter."

Zhao Shu felt inexplicable as soon as Shen An opened his mouth, "It is a big deal for an envoy from one country to commit suicide, but I believe it is impossible for an envoy from another country to commit suicide, and the envoy from Xixia...I think it is impossible!"

"It's impossible to predict!" Zhao Shu felt that Shen An was too subjective. How can national affairs be so casually speculated on? If this is the case, even an emperor like him can make decisions casually, but most such emperors end up with the reputation of a foolish king.

Important matters of state must be carefully discussed and discussed repeatedly. This is the right way.

"Your Majesty, the Liang family has just come to power. I dare to say that her life is not easy."

"It must be difficult." Seeing Shen An come to assist, Fu Bi felt grateful beyond words, so he reciprocated the favor, "The various forces within Xixia will not obey her."

"I'm wondering whether the Liang family will arrange for envoys to come to the Song Dynasty to commit suicide..." Shen An said seriously: "After what happened, the Song Dynasty will feel guilty and worry about Xixia's anger. And Xixia's internal enemies will definitely share the same hatred, so she We can take the opportunity to send troops to the Song Dynasty and unite all the forces in Xixia through war."

Historically, that bitch of the Liang family sent troops to the Song Dynasty, and she constantly sent troops to nearby areas to fight and fight. She reduced Xixia to poverty, but she also established Xixia's prestige.

UU Reading www.uukanshu.net How many countries dare to offend such a lifeless style?

But the Song Dynasty dared.

Later, during the reign of Shenzong and Zhezong, the Song Dynasty launched attacks on Xixia. During Zhezong's reign, Zhang Dun came to power and once forced Xixia into a desperate situation.

This is what happened next.

But at this moment, the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty did not know Liang's character, so they had something to say about Shen An...

"absurd!"

Han Qi wanted to use more intense words, but thinking that he and Shen An had fought side by side, he softened his tone and said, "Who would let the envoy commit suicide? Isn't this child's play?"

This is indeed ridiculous.

"Who can do something so cruel?"

Ouyang Xiu felt that Shen An was having a whim, "Then no matter how stupid Mr. Liang is, he would never do such a thing."

Zeng Gongliang smiled and said: "If this could be the case, the Liao people would only have to let their envoys commit suicide in Bianliang, and then they would have an excuse to send troops south. So Anbei, you... are still too young."

There was a period of time when the Liao Kingdom had always wanted to go south, but could not find an excuse to send troops.

This is the constraint of this era, that is to say, there must be a bottom line in doing things.

But Mrs. Liang is a woman!

She is still a fierce woman!

Shen An frowned and said, "I think this will definitely happen. Your Majesty, please go and inquire about this matter."
