Chapter 1800 They Are All Liars

The fish was braised fish, which was delicious, but what pleased Yang Chao even more was Shen An's attitude.

"The Song Dynasty and Goryeo faced each other across the sea, and both encountered the Liao people as evil neighbors. The Song Dynasty believed that Goryeo's decision to reject the Liao people was right. The Song Dynasty understood and supported Goryeo's decision."

Shen An spoke very solemnly, which meant a formal statement.

If the official statement is made officially, it must not go back on its words. Otherwise, who will believe what the Song Dynasty will say in the future?

Before setting off from Xijing, Wang Hui said that Goryeo's ultimate goal was to win the support of the Song Dynasty, preferably by selling some weapons.

Now that the ultimate goal was half achieved, Yang Chao was secretly happy, but he was worried that Shen An was lying, so he raised a glass to invite him to drink. After he was tipsy, he smiled and said: "Shen Guogong's words are very kind, but the Emperor of the Song Dynasty the meaning of?"

We won’t play lies, we will directly ask you whether it is true or false.

This is a diplomatic statement, and it is very effective.

Of course, you can also be vague, but that kind of vague statement is most likely to be misunderstood due to personality and cultural differences.

So he took the risk of offending Shen An and asked directly.

Shen An said calmly: "So...Zizhan, what do the people in Bianliang say about so and so?"

He felt that if he told all the bandit names in Bianliang, Yang Chao would be amazed.

Su Shi next to him was speechless and couldn't hold it in well. Hearing this, he said: "Shen Guogong is in Bianliang. He is said to persuade people with virtue and promise a thousand pieces of gold."

After finishing speaking, he cursed, thinking about what those people whose legs were broken by Shen An would think.

When they hear this about convincing people with virtue, they will definitely curse and then vomit.

As for a promise worth a thousand dollars, this is indeed it.

Shen An's rewards were never discounted, which was talked about by Bianliang people.

So Su Shi said seriously: "Shen Guogong promised a thousand pieces of gold, and everyone in the Song Dynasty knew about it."

Yang Chao nodded, stood up and solemnly handed over his hands, "Thank you so much."

"You're welcome." Shen An smiled and said, "Someone said that the Song Dynasty and Goryeo looked at each other across the sea and helped each other. This is what they should do."

Good man!

Yang Chao couldn't help but be overjoyed when he got the exact statement.

With this statement, everything will be easy to discuss in the future.

That’s why negotiations need to set the tone.

Once the tone was settled, the follow-up went smoothly.

After all, Yang Chao was the Minister of Rites, and he could not express his emotions or anger. Seeing Shen An's kindness, he asked again: "What if Goryeo needs help? I wonder if the Song Dynasty would like to help each other and lend a helping hand."

This is a serious question and cannot be answered lightly.

Shen An narrowed his eyes and lowered his eyes, stretched out his hand to rub the table, slowly raised his head and said: "It won't exceed too much, Shen can make the decision."

As long as it doesn't go too far, I make the decision.

Yang Chao cupped his hand, and when he raised his head again, there were tears in his eyes, "The Liao army is pressing down on the border. At this time, only the Song Dynasty extended a helping hand. Goryeo... I can't thank you enough."

"It should."

Shen An was still very kind, without any hint of arrogance, which made Yang Chao feel more cordial and couldn't help but think of Jin Chengjun's previous slander.

At this moment, he had automatically regarded Jin Chengjun's words as slander, and was ready to file a complaint against Wang Hui.

That Jin Chengjun, I want to kill him!

When Yang Chao left Shen An's residence, Jin Chengjun was waiting outside. When he saw him coming out, he stepped forward and said, "Yang Shangshu, how is it?"

He felt that Yang Shangshu had probably taken advantage of Shen An, so he was a little indignant.

"You said Shen An is arrogant?" Yang Chao looked calm.

"Yes!" Jin Chengjun swore that he was not lying, but he felt that Yang Chao's attitude was wrong. why? Could it be that Shen An made him unable to step down?

Yang Chao stopped and looked at him, "I have seen many officials, but I have never seen one as stupid as you!"

"Yang Shangshu..." Jin Chengjun didn't know why Yang Chao suddenly changed his attitude, and he was a little at a loss. He even thought that this old guy might have drunk too much.

That's right, Shen An's cooking skills are unparalleled in the world, and Yang Chao couldn't help but drink too much.

"You said Shen An was arrogant, but all I saw was kindness. You said he was mean, but all I saw was majestic!" Yang Chao took a deep breath and suppressed his anger, "Your words almost made me sad If you make a mistake, if I make a mistake, the negotiations between Goryeo and the Song Dynasty will completely fail. Whose responsibility is this?"

When you are an official, you must learn to take the blame.

For example, before a big event starts, you should first catch an unlucky person, throw the blame on his head, and then say that if the matter fails, it must be his fault.

If the matter is done, you can pretend to be magnanimous and forgive him, and everyone will praise you. If things fail, you will pretend to be sad and distraught, and in the end you will be beheading Ma Su with tears in your eyes...

This is the most brilliant way to shift blame, and Yang Chao obviously knows this well.

Jin Chengjun hissed: "Yang Shangshu, everything I said is true. If you don't believe me, go ask the officials accompanying the mission."

Once the pot was firmly placed on his head, Jin Chengjun knew that he would not get any good results. He looked at Yang Chao, who was gentle and elegant, like a handsome gentleman, and felt a chill running down his spine.

"I want to ask."

After arriving in his room later, Yang Chao summoned the envoy's entourage, "What kind of person is Shen An?"

"Peaceful."

"Very kind."

"Getting along with Duke Shen is like taking a breath of spring breeze."

"..."

Jin Chengjun looked at these former subordinates and couldn't help but said: "Don't you notice the way he looks at inferior people?"

What impressed him most was the look in Shen An's eyes, like a high-altitude god, while he was a humble ant.

Everyone shook their heads in silence.

"My own selfishness! My own selfishness!" Yang Chao slapped the table and said, "For your own selfishness, you actually slandered an important minister of the Song Dynasty. It's ridiculous! Damn it!"

The candlelight in the room moved slightly, and Yang Chao was furious.

Jin Chengjun gritted his teeth and tried his best to hold back the anger of being wronged, "The official did not lie."

Yang Chao said coldly: "I only know that I almost made a big mistake, and the cause was you."

He stood up and looked at everyone, "Korea needs opportunities, and Shen An's arrival is an opportunity. Anyone who destroys this opportunity will be a sinner of Koryeo."

Everyone bowed to say goodbye, and Jin Chengjun was carried out.

Once outside, he could barely walk, so he broke away and walked alone in the darkness.

"Then Shen An is very arrogant!"

There was a voice from the front, and Jin Chengjun couldn't help but burst into tears, and he was about to step forward to find someone who could speak justice for him.

"He is very arrogant and careless, as if no one else exists."

"Hey! But Yang Shangshu obviously wanted to take all the credit and didn't dare to offend Shen An, so Jin Chengjun became the unlucky guy."

"But Yang Shangshu's attitude is really ugly. He is planning to take advantage of Jin Chengjun to please Shen An. Tsk! This is really servile!"

"There is no way, Goryeo must have the support of the Song Dynasty, otherwise what will happen if the Liao people invade?"

"It has nothing to do with the Liao people. Goryeo can support the Liao people's attack independently, but it is best if it can bring the Song Dynasty into it."

Jin Chengjun slowly knelt on the ground, covered his face with his hands, and choked.

Yang Chao was Wang Hui's confidant, and Jin Chengjun felt that he and Yang Chao were on the same line, so he was full of confidence. Who knew that Yang Chao wanted to please Shen An, so he slapped him awake.

oh! It turns out that a certain person is just cannon fodder!

He raised his head and said through gritted teeth: "Yang Chao, I want to kill you!"

Yang Chao didn't know that Jin Chengjun wanted to kill him, and he wouldn't care if he knew.

He drank tea at his residence.

A light was like a bean. He picked up a bean and put it into his mouth, chewing it slowly.

The beans are very fragrant, and after taking another sip of wine, it feels even better.

He drank the wine slowly, his eyes calm.

Bang bang bang!

Someone knocked on the door, Yang Chao raised his head and said, "Come in."

The door opened and a very young official came in.

The official bowed and sat down, and said: "Yang Shangshu, since Shen An is so easy to talk to, should we also give him some benefits? It's so-called reciprocating a favor!"

"Why do you want to give them benefits?" Yang Chao frowned and said, "You are still young. Your father and I have been friends for many years, so I brought you here. But you must know the right rules and don't speak nonsense."

"Yes." The young official lowered his head, "But... I think... isn't it said that we are here to help each other?"

"Innocent!" Yang Chao said calmly: "The so-called watching and helping means that the Song Dynasty helped Goryeo. What is watching, if the Song Dynasty gets the chance, it will definitely suppress Goryeo. And if Goryeo gets the chance, it will definitely sweep the territory of the Liao people, so these Just listen to the words. The real thing is when you get the benefits."

The young official couldn't hide his disappointment, "So these are all lies?"

"The Song people hope that the next time they go to war with the Liao people, Goryeo can launch an attack to contain the Liao people." Yang Chao said in a low voice: "But Goryeo will not go to the fire to get chestnuts for the Song people, do you understand? Eat the benefits and stand aside. "

The young official sighed. It was probably the first time he had seen such a scene of intrigue, and he was deeply shocked. "But... what if the Song Dynasty people get angry if they stand by and watch?"

Yang Chao smiled, "Yelu Hongji has been recruiting warriors crazily, but he will not use those people to deal with Goryeo, so Goryeo just pretended not to hear their threats. The strength of the Liao people has become stronger because of this, so Song People's lives will not be easy.

The next battle between them will definitely involve heavy casualties, and Goryeo is waiting for an opportunity. You have to remember that between countries, after all, you are the most important. UU reading www.uukanshu． net "

The young official lowered his head, "Yes. It's just... Shen An is known as a man of both civil and military skills. What do you think after meeting him today?"

"He!" Yang Chao drank a glass of wine, handed the glass over, and said while the young official was pouring wine for him: "That person thinks he can confuse me by pretending to be friendly and cordial. He is really dreaming!"

…

"sleep!"

Shen An was already lying down, but Su Shi refused to leave.

"Anbei, does the Song Dynasty really want to support Goryeo?"

"yes!"

Shen An's eyelids trembled.

"But Gao Li... I feel that you are not a good person, no, you are not the kind of person who lets others take advantage of you. Today Yang Chao asked for help, and you actually agreed. I feel... like a greedy beast asking Xiao Bai Rabbit shows his kindness. Even Guoguo knows this is unreliable, but the Koreans are very happy to see it. I feel like you are digging a hole..."

Shen An has fallen into sleep.

In the early morning of the next day, when Shen An got up, she saw that Su Shi's eyes were darkened, so she frowned and said, "Did they give away a woman last night?"

The Koreans looked for some women last night, but Shen An sternly rejected them. He was worried that Su Shi would not be able to withstand the temptation and would spread his seeds all over the world.

Su Shi yawned, "No, I'm just thinking about what you are doing."

"I don't do anything, I'm just here to be friendly."

Su Shi rubbed his eyes, "Not even Maodou believes what you said! No, not even Lu Mao."

After breakfast, Shen An took the envoy out.

As soon as he went out, he saw Jin Chengjun.

Jin Chengjun's eyes were red, he must have been awake all night, and Shen An also noticed that his eyes were a little weird, as if he was a little excited, with a desperate aura.

Is this guy planning to assassinate someone?

In an instant, Shen An stopped and prepared to summon the local soldiers.

…

I'm asking for a monthly ticket.
