Chapter 302: Deceit that Dafa Is Good

The first serious court meeting of the new year, just when everyone thought Shen An would not come, he unexpectedly came.

At dawn this season, Shen An came in chewing a leg of lamb.

There were countless officials outside the imperial city. Some were eating breakfast at the stalls, and some were buying things to eat in their hands, but no one had Shen An's cow.

He held the leg of lamb and took a bite of a piece of meat. Then, as his teeth moved, the piece of mutton slowly disappeared from his mouth.

And the lamb leg is actually braised, with a rich aroma that makes people drool.

Who would eat a leg of lamb so early in the morning?

This guy is so arrogant!

"Why do you want to eat this?"

When Lao Bao arrived, he no longer smelled like urine, but he smelled more like milk.

Shen An swallowed the mutton, "It's not like I overcooked it on New Year's Day. If I don't eat it, it will go bad. It's noon on the hoeing day, and the sweat is dripping from the soil... I was born in poverty, how can I be willing to waste it."

What he said was arrogant, but the people around him sneered.

When Shen Bian was still here, you, Shen An, were working in the government office. What does it mean to be born in poverty?

Bao Zheng didn't care about this. He looked at the censor and sighed with some regret, "I'm afraid I'm going to be uneasy today. As for...the Mangshan Army incident, you can just use your military exploits to offset it..."

He lowered his voice and said, "The officials are soft-hearted. If you exaggerate your military achievements and talk about difficult things, it's best to burst into tears. Do you understand? Yes!"

Shen An was stunned for a moment, then nodded and said, "Don't worry, I'm a good at teasing and interrogation."

Bao Zheng was angry and shouted: "I'm not asking you to make jokes, but I'm asking you to show off your merits. It's hard to cry, you're stupid!"

Shen An was sprayed with saliva and could only nod his head frequently, saying that he would definitely bring the Imperial City to tears.

"Don't worry, my name will be Shen Jiangnu from now on."

At this moment, the imperial city seemed to feel the cries of thousands of years ago, even when the palace door was opened, it was silent.

All the way into the main hall, since it was the first formal court meeting in the new year, everyone said some auspicious words first and then started discussing matters.

Zhao Zhen talked about a few things that were left at the end of the year, and everyone discussed it, and then everything was fine.

This is the most leisurely period of time. As time goes on, the affairs of the entire Song Dynasty will gradually pile up, making the monarchs and ministers anxious.

Logically speaking, Zhao Zhen's next step would be to reward the ministers with breakfast, and then everyone would disperse.

But today he looked at Shen An.

"Yang Li, do you know?"

"I know, it's said that he's the madam from Hongxiu Tower."

Shen An said seriously.

"That's a man!"

Zhao Zhen said angrily: "It was originally a beating, but now someone is dead. This matter..."

What do you, Shen An, say about this?

You can't manage more than a hundred people. To put it bluntly, you can't even compare to those landlords.

The Song Dynasty did not curb mergers and land transfers were rapid.

Today you are still a landlord, but tomorrow your land may be sold to someone else.

The common people are the worst off. Once there is a disaster or a family disaster, most of them have no choice but to sell their land and then use their families to farm the landlord's land as tenants.

So it is one thing to say that the Song Dynasty had economic freedom, but it is a bit strange that it never protected the interests of the people, especially the farmers.

Homeowner farmers were the foundation of the Song Dynasty at this time, but their lives were always in danger.

This is too far-fetched. In a word, any larger landowner can overwhelm the Mangshan Army with the number of tenants in his family.

But a landlord, or even the landlord's housekeeper, can take care of the tenant farmers, how about you?

You Shen An can't control those one hundred and three rural soldiers...

Are you ashamed?

Facing these looks, Shen An said innocently: "Your Majesty, I have something to say."

Zhao Zhen nodded, and everyone was ready to listen to his self-defense.

"Your Majesty, I think that a Japanese woman can sneak into the Song Dynasty. This matter must be investigated strictly."

This person actually answered the question incorrectly?

Everyone still found it funny, but what Shen An said next made them stop laughing.

"I'm thinking, if those Japanese women were given away...for example, to a certain dignitary, Your Majesty, then every move of the Song Dynasty and many of the treasures of the Song Dynasty would become the property of the Japanese...for example How to build the mighty crossbow.”

hiss!

His hypothesis gave people a toothache.

Fu Bi said: "Didn't you say those Japanese women were short and ugly?"

No one likes short and ugly women, you are worrying too much.

And everyone is a moral person, so they will definitely not do such things.

Shen An asked: "But what if they are as beautiful as gods? The Japanese country is not small. It has been connected with the Central Plains since the Han Dynasty. It even got involved in the war in Goryeo during the Tang Dynasty. It suffered a disastrous defeat at Baijiangkou, so it put away Ambition…can’t you find a few beauties in a place like this?”

Fu Bi was about to retort, but was horrified.

yes!

Not to mention the Japanese country, beautiful women often appear in those barbarian countries!

He said seriously: "Your Majesty, I dare you to inquire about this matter."

Bao Zheng came out at the right time and said: "Your Majesty, if this matter gets started, those secret spies will probably take advantage of it in the future!"

There are many spies from the Liao Kingdom and the Xixia people, who have opened the door to smuggling people, which will definitely become a breakthrough for their opponents in the future.

Zhao Zhen said in a deep voice: "My name is Zhang for eight years."

At this moment, Fu Bi cupped his hands at Shen An and said, "Shen Daizhao is wary of this matter, but I am frivolous."

Zhao Zhen also nodded slightly in approval, feeling that this young man was very alert. If he were not a civil servant, Zhao Zhen would have wanted him to take over Zhang's eight-year class, and he would definitely be able to manage the Imperial City Division well.

If Shen An knew his thoughts, he would definitely rebel.

You actually want me to have my penis cut off and go to the palace?

Later, when Zhang Bian came, Zhao Zhen asked, "How many Japanese girls are there in Bianliang? How did they get in?"

Zhang Baibian had obviously found out something during the long vacation. He said confidently: "Your Majesty, most of those Japanese women were brought to Bianliang on ships. Then someone colluded with them and they were taken to Bianliang."

"Collusion?"

This word was too sensitive, and Zhao Zhen couldn't help snorting.

Zhang Ba8 said: "There are no secret spies discovered so far. Most of them are borrowing seeds, and a few are making money."

Shen An shook his head slightly, feeling a little regretful.

Don’t the Japanese have ambitions at this time?

After thinking for a while, he remembered that the next time Japan had ambitions towards China was during the Ming Dynasty, and they attacked North Korea first.

However, Japanese pirates have been a serious problem since the Yuan Dynasty, so we should keep this in mind and look for opportunities to slap those people to death.

Zhao Zhen was obviously extremely dissatisfied with this matter, so he asked: "Where are those people?"

The so-called people refer to those who colluded with the Japanese.

Zhang Baba said: "The Imperial City Division arrested a few, and then followed them to several brothels in the capital. After interrogation, they obtained confessions. Although those Japanese women were not beautiful, as long as they were known as Japanese women, those People will always like to visit..."

The inexplicable idea of ​​'bringing glory to the country' has probably existed since ancient times, but those people could even accept Japanese girls with weird makeup, which Shen An couldn't help but admire.

Zhao Zhen couldn't help but feel relieved. What he began to worry about was that powerful people would get involved, and then...

At this moment, he has no heir, and he has mostly seen the various overt and secret struggles of those powerful people, but he just looks at them indifferently and has no interest in taking care of them.

But if they dare to use Japanese girls as spies, Zhao Zhen will never tolerate it.

No matter who it is, once he is discovered doing this, Zhao Zhen swears that he will regret it for the rest of his life.

He smiled and said: "Well done. The follow-up to this matter has been handled as soon as possible and everything has been dealt with."

Zhang Baibian bowed and resigned.

Zhao Zhen immediately said: "The food over there is ready, please go ahead."

The prime ministers and assistants responded. Zhao Zhen stood up slowly. As soon as he turned around, he suddenly slapped his forehead and said angrily: "Why did I forget that..."

He stared at Shen An with an unkind look, "As soon as you interfered with it, I forgot about it. Yang Li is dead, who did it to the Mangshan Army?"

The prime ministers and ministers couldn't help but cover their foreheads and laugh. They had also forgotten about Yang Li just now.

A group of monarchs, ministers and a group of old men were fooled by this young man Shen An into forgetting about this matter. They couldn't help but blush, and then they all pretended to be serious.

Shen An is going to be in trouble.

The Mangshan Army will become history from now on, and Shen An will be disgraced.

Old God Bao Zheng stood there, thinking that he had taught Shen An the secret of crying and making trouble, so that he could get through the difficulties safely.

But he had forgotten that this so-called secret book was actually the daily life of that little kid Bao Shou.

If you feel uncomfortable, you will cry; if you don't get it, you will cry...

Lao Bao had a son in his old age, so he inevitably became a little pampered. As time went by, he habitually felt that this was a good idea.

Shen An didn't panic at all, but asked seriously: "May I ask Your Majesty, who is behind the Red Sleeve Tower?"

This guy actually dares to ask this question. Didn't Zhang Bianba just say that the Red Sleeve Building belongs to Yang Li...

Zhao Zhen was also a little angry, "Why do you ask this?"

The evidence on this matter was so solid that he simply did not want to investigate it further, lest it trigger an impeachment war.

Bao Zheng will definitely be involved, and everyone in the clan will take sides...

Huh!

This will be lively, right?

Do you want to watch the excitement?

Zhao Zhen suddenly wanted to see the excitement. Since he had no son, it would be good to see the clan elders fighting over it.

This is an indifferent emperor.

But in the end he thought of responsibility.

So he gave up the plan.

However, the Mangshan Army must deal with it, and the murderer must also deal with it, otherwise the censors will not let go of the matter.

"Your Majesty, I sent someone to check. Yang Li was a down-and-out businessman ten years ago...and suddenly he had money, and then he opened the Red Sleeve Tower."

He didn't need to say the rest. Just look at Zhao Zhen's face and you would know the result.

"Zhang Ba8!"

Zhang was chased back again in eight years.

"Yang Li... Your Majesty, there is nothing wrong with the Yang Li family, so I feel... I am guilty."

He regarded the matter as an ordinary case and did not dig into Yang Li's background.

Mangshan's army went to have fun, and then thought the Japanese girl was ugly, so he made a fuss...

Fights, group fights, and then beating people to death...

There is nothing to investigate in this case!

"You didn't check?"

Zhao Zhen feels that this long holiday has made many people lazy.

"Go, go yourself!"

This is a slap in the face and a warning that this will not happen again.

Zhang Ba8 confessed his crime and left. Shen An said firmly: "Your Majesty, that Yang Li is not from Bianliang either. It is said that when he entered Bianliang, he was carrying a small baggage... It took only one year to turn out He became extremely rich... I, the God of Wealth, feel ashamed of myself!"

Shen An was regarded as the God of Wealth by the businessmen in the capital, but compared with that man, his speed of getting rich was even worse.

The faces of the prime ministers and assistants were pale, and they all felt that this matter... who was negligent in their duties?

But Shen An turned the situation around beautifully, and this ability makes people admire him a few times.

But the emperor is in a bad mood, so everyone should be more honest.

The Imperial City Secretary was furious, and the news came back at noon.

"Your Majesty, UU reading www.uukanshu.net Yang Li is from Shouzhou. He originally studied in Shouzhou, but he did not achieve much and his family was poor. Later he came to Bianliang to find a way to make a living..."

Zhang Baibian felt that he had neglected the biggest problem and couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat.

"My people conducted a thorough investigation on Yang Li's side and found that there was a servant missing from his family."

Zhao Zhen said coldly: "Have you learned how to cover it up? This is an industry owned by either high-ranking officials or powerful people. It's shameless!"

When high-ranking officials and powerful people engage in this business, they are really as shameless as a madam.

"Seal down the Red Sleeve Tower, seal them all."

After Shen An lied and changed the topic, he and Mang Shanjun were immediately separated.

…

The fifteenth day is over, and the New Year is over. Everyone should work and study. Sir, I wish everyone all the best and peace.
