Chapter 1,772 The Ruthless People of Korea

"The official has a handwritten letter."

Zhao Shu's handwriting was very simple, just explaining the celebration.

The great victory of the Northern Expedition could not have gone silent just because Zhao Shu was not in Bianliang, right?

There is no such truth.

Therefore, Zhao Xu asked people to give rewards to the lonely old man and others in the capital according to the instructions in the handwriting.

Secondly, the prime ministers and ministers rewarded them with wine and meat one by one.

Finally, there are the clan and the powerful.

This is customary.

It also means universal celebration.

The real promotion of official promotion has to wait for Zhao Shu's return. This is the right of the emperor, and he cannot give it up until he closes his eyes.

Zhao Xu went back first, and later the officials came to congratulate him.

After some response, Zhao Xu said: "The Northern Expedition was a great victory, and the land of Youyan will never be repeated again. In this case, can we repair the river embankment?"

ah……

Bao Zheng swore he heard the embarrassing calls, but when he turned around and took a look, no one said anything.

But the feeling of embarrassment was hard to conceal.

He looked back at Zhao Xu and wondered whether the king mentioned this matter intentionally or unintentionally?

After the officials dispersed, Zhao Xu suddenly laughed.

"In the past, these people bullied me when I was young and always liked to use big principles to oppress others. Today I will use truth to remind them and make them lose face!"

He went to Qingning Palace in a happy mood.

"You are a good prince."

Xiang was very happy and made tea for him with her own hands.

Zhao Xu sat down and straightened his back, "The official family is still in the north, but according to my understanding of the war, Youzhou City must have been captured at this moment, and then they will attack Jizhou and other places. That is just ordinary.

But the key is to rebuild the Great Wall.

The Great Wall has been in ruins for many years. This is a problem. "

Xiang smiled and said: "If the Northern Expedition is successful, the Song Dynasty will be rich."

"Well, if the Northern Expedition is successful, there will be more fields in the north, and there will be more taxes."

Zhao Xu smiled and said: "There are also foreign vassals. They used to be very respectful to the Liao Kingdom. How about now?"

…

Xijing.

Because of the Song-Liao War, Wang Hui, the leader of the Goryeo Dynasty, who came to Xijing specially, was in a complicated mood at the moment.

He looked at the ministers, and finally his eyes fell on Li He.

"What do you think... about the Battle of Song and Liao?"

Li He was tangled in his heart, but he remembered Shen An's explanation.

"Your Majesty, the Liao people's army has gradually declined in recent years, but the Song people have produced many firearms. I think... the Song people will win."

"This is a big fallacy!"

An official frowned and said: "The Liao people have hundreds of thousands of cavalry, how many can the Song people have? Even if the horse breeding areas in the northwest can produce many war horses, the cavalry costs money, and the Song people are reluctant to give up more equipment. Without the cavalry, what can the Song people do? Can you win?"

Wang Hui turned his eyes and said calmly: "Your Majesty, please tell me everything."

"Yes." An official said: "Your Majesty, the Liao people are still fierce, and the Song people are going to the north... I thought that both sides would lose."

This is the best ending.

"Goryeo..." Wang Hui muttered: "This corner of Goryeo only seeks peace."

The atmosphere in the hall became more lively and everyone laughed.

The so-called "just seeking peace" means that Song and Liao will fight harder and it is best to finish them off together, so that Korea will naturally be at peace.

"Evil neighbor!"

An old minister shook his head and sighed, and everyone couldn't help but feel the same way.

Goryeo encountered such evil neighbors as the Liao people, and it was truly unlucky for eight lifetimes.

"But what would happen if the Song people became our neighbors?" Someone asked this question.

The old minister raised his head and said, "Song Wenya is naturally a good neighbor."

"Hehe!" The man sneered: "Good neighbor, think about the Han and Tang Dynasties. By then, Goryeo will definitely bow its head."

"Didn't Goryeo bow to the Liao people?" The veteran asked angrily, "Is bowing to the Liao people the same as bowing to the Song Dynasty? What the Liao people brought to Goryeo was humiliation, war and blood!"

"That's it!"

Wang Hui didn't like that there was still a dispute at this time. He asked: "I just want to ask, who wins and who loses!"

"The people of Song Dynasty win." Li He holds the title of famous general of Goryeo, and his words are quite authoritative.

"Pooh!"

But just like the warriors of the Song Dynasty, in Goryeo, civil servants were still superior to others.

A civil servant rushed over and took a sip from Li He. Li He looked at him, wiped his face without changing his expression, and said: "The smell of stewed mutton. You actually ate mutton for breakfast. The king only eats mutton once in three days. Who are you? How dare you be so extravagant!"

The civil servant was startled and turned around to plead guilty.

"That's all." Wang Hui said calmly: "If you have money, you can eat whatever you want."

He asked Li He again, "Are you sure?"

"I dare to bet with my life and fortune!"

Li He had no gambling habit before, but after being forced by Shen An to write those things, he found gambling very interesting.

If you put your life as a bet, what can you win?

He clenched his fists and his eyes were sharp.

Wang Hui said: "That's fine."

Everyone was silent.

Wang Hui didn't move, and everyone could only stand.

I'm hungry!

Li He heard bowel sounds, and he wasn't sure whose it was.

The king refused to disperse the dynasty, so everyone could only endure it.

As for why, everyone knows it.

The king wants to wait for news.

He was frightened, so he needed his ministers to accompany him.

If the Liao people win, then Daliao's invincible reputation will resound throughout the continent, and then Goryeo will have to make greater sacrifices.

If the Song Dynasty wins...

Da Song!

A very kind country.

Li He felt that it would be fine if Goryeo offered its loyalty, and the Song Dynasty looked down upon Goryeo's achievements, let alone its output.

But somehow, he felt that Wang Hui and the officials were afraid of the Song Dynasty.

In their eyes, the Song Dynasty seemed more terrifying than the Liao people.

"Liao people are barbarians!"

A muttering from behind solved the problem in Li He's mind.

Yes.

No matter how much the Liao people learn from the Central Plains, the habit in their bones is difficult to eliminate. Therefore, although Goryeo is defeated, they look down on the Liao.

The Song Dynasty was different. They had everything that Goryeo had, and it was better.

No, everything in Korea was taught by them.

This is sir.

Let’s be neighbors with Mr.

Li He found such days very exciting.

So when he heard the rapid footsteps, he turned around and roared: "Your Majesty is here, please don't make any noise!"

The majesty of the king must be guaranteed, so Wang Hui glanced at Li He approvingly and felt that this famous general was really good.

A guard slowed down and walked in. He had no time to salute and said impatiently: "Your Majesty, the Liao people have been defeated!"

"oh……"

Suddenly there were more noises in the hall. The guard looked up and saw some red faces and uneasiness.

"say clearly."

Wang Hui quickly changed his unease into a smile.

"...Shen An had already laid an ambush and surrounded and killed the Liao army. Xiao Yanxiong escaped with more than 10,000 people, and then the Song army captured Youzhou City in one day..."

"One day?"

The old minister praised: "It is indeed Shen Longtu, the number one general in the Song Dynasty!"

Someone glanced at Li He maliciously, probably hoping that he would stand up and compete with others.

But how could Li He dare to argue with Shen An?

So his fear turned into calmness in Wang Hui's eyes, "Li Qing is calm."

This extra point was so inexplicable that even Li He was a little confused.

He smiled at the admiration from the king, and the guard continued: "The Song army is currently attacking the Nanjing Road of the Liao people, and they are going strong all the way."

Why!

Wang Hui sighed, stood up and said: "Immediately send an envoy to Bianliang to congratulate, and... Li He."

"I'm here."

Li He felt extremely happy all over his body.

Just when everyone thought that the Liao people had the advantage in this battle, someone insisted that the Song people would win. This vision!

Ha ha ha ha!

He wanted to laugh, but could only hold back.

"You have been to Bianliang, but have you met Shen An?"

"I've seen it."

"Shen An...how is this person?"

"Shen An is very inconspicuous in Bianliang, just like an ordinary person."

"Are you hiding from the court?" Wang Hui said with a smile: "Interesting."

His smile looked a little reserved.

"But he is a master of miscellaneous studies. His ability to write essays on the sea has made it possible for scholars all over the world to no longer suffer from the lack of famous teachers. Several of his poems are famous and make people applaud him. And every time he goes out to conquer, he will come back victorious. He has never Defeated...

Your Majesty, this man is both civil and military. "

"Yes! He is both civil and military." Wang Hui said: "Since the Song Dynasty went to Di Qing, I thought there would be no famous generals, but this Shen Longtu turned out to be like this. It can be seen that God is also looking after the Song Dynasty!"

The old minister came out and said: "Your Majesty, Xiao Yanxiong is the secret envoy of the Northern Privy Council. He is the most domineering person. When he conquered the grassland, he used ruthless methods. When Goryeo went to negotiate, he happened to meet him. He once said that as long as the Emperor of Liao With the order, he will lead his army to attack Goryeo, leaving not a single blade of grass behind! At that time, our country was in panic, but now that Xiao Yanxiong was defeated by Shen An, he was as panic-stricken as a lost dog. Your Majesty, what else do the Liao people have to rely on? It’s gone!

At this moment, Goryeo should immediately show its goodwill to the Song Dynasty. If possible, it should send its prince to Bianliang to congratulate the Song Emperor. "

Wang Hui muttered: "The envoy will leave soon, but the prince..." He shook his head, "No need."

Someone said: "When the Liao people asked for hostages, we didn't pay attention."

There is precedent for this.

The old minister smiled bitterly and said: "This is not a hostage, but a sign of closeness."

But Wang Hui just disagreed.

Finally, there is reward based on merit.

"Li Qing's sharp eyes allowed me to learn about Song Liao's truth and falsehood. The person who came..."

If you get a promotion, you will get a certain amount of money.

Li He returned home with these things.

But all he saw was flames shooting into the sky.

Li He's home was burned down.

Neither his wife nor his children escaped.

He returned to the palace, placed the reward on the ground, and kowtowed with such force that his face was covered with blood within a few strokes.

There were sighs in the palace, and some people were muttering that the civil servants were really cruel.

Li He stood up and left the palace, his faltering steps made people feel pity.

The fire has been put out, but embers remain.

Li He staggered through the smoke, rummaged for a long time, and found his wife and children.

The scene of him holding a few dark things and crying up to the sky will always be remembered in people's minds.

The spring rain is coming.

Everyone said that God couldn't bear to see such a tragedy in the world, so he sent down the rain.

Li He buried his wife and children, and an edict came from the palace.

Promoted two levels!

Li He was promoted to three levels in one day and became an important minister.

He refused all congratulations and sat alone in the only remaining room in his home. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net

The room was a little burned and there was not much in it.

He sat on the floor and drank heavily.

When he drank too much, he cried and said words that no one could understand.

The crying sound gradually became inaudible, and he took out a small package from his arms. When he opened it, it was filled with powder.

He poured the powder onto the ground and diluted it with alcohol.

In the end, he was so drunk that he fell asleep inside.

A wild dog came in quietly, sniffed, and licked the wine on the ground.

The wild dog searched for it but couldn't find the food, and finally went out disappointed.

It swayed all the way and slowly fell down when it reached the city gate.

"Why is this dog dead? It's still bleeding from the corner of its mouth!"

"Eat meat!"

"Okay, eat dog meat!"

That night several idle men fell seriously ill from eating dog meat.

Late at night, Li He woke up and saw a dark figure approaching, "The Song people's spies have already passed on the news of the great victory of the Northern Expedition to you. Our people hastened all the way to Xijing. Why don't you send the news to the palace?"

"No reason."

Li He's voice was a little hoarse.

The black shadow said: "But... that's all. Someone previously searched for the cause of the fire and said that the fire came from the bedroom. The villain was worried that he would find out that you lit the fire yourself, so he killed that person."

Li He smiled and said: "You did a good job. Come, I have something for you here."

The black shadow approached, and Li He pounced towards it.

After a few breaths, he let go of the black figure whose neck was broken, and gasped: "Wealth is in danger. A certain man poisoned his wife and children to death, and burned down his home. Only then did he get an official promotion." Level three... No one can take these back, no one!"

He found a short blade from the black shadow's body, stabbed his thigh without hesitation, and then struggled to climb out.

"Help……"
