A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 428 Taiyuan Wang Family, Wang Shen

"...If the candidate for the prince can be decided as soon as possible, the blessings of this world, the ancestral temples, the state, the officials and the people of the world...all will depend on your majesty's thoughts..."

While Sima Guang was talking, Zhao Zhen said with a dazed expression: "I vented my anger on Han Qing yesterday, and you dare to remonstrate... Do you have to choose a clan son as the prince?"

Sima Guang nodded.

Zhao Zhen sighed: "These are loyal words, I understand."

Sima Guang bowed and said: "When I spoke about this matter, I said that I would die. I didn't expect Your Majesty to be so magnanimous, so I was frightened..."

Zhao Zhen looked at the void and said dullly: "This is not a bad thing. It is a common practice in ancient and modern times to choose a clan son as the prince. Please hand the memorial to Zhongshu."

Handing it to Zhongshu means following the procedure.

There was something unclear in Sima Guang's eyes, and he said: "Absolutely not, this matter... will be decided by His Majesty."

This is similar to the meaning of "This is His Majesty's family matter", which is very considerate.

Sima Guang is now a fellow practitioner and works beside Zhao Zhen. Later, he went to the political hall to find something to do.

Han Qi was dealing with political affairs. Sima Guang said that and then turned his eyes slightly.

"Everyone get out."

Han Qi waved his hands, and the two of them were left in the room, and then asked: "What did your Majesty say today?"

Sima Guang said calmly: "The matter of the ancestral temple and the country..."

Han Qi raised his head slightly and looked at the roof, and then couldn't help but smile.

Immediately their eyes met and they both nodded slightly.

This was a tacit cooperation, and Sima Guang tried his best.

Han Qi has to give corresponding chips.

"I know you were humiliated by Shen An last time..."

Sima Guang's expression instantly turned dull and he said, "It's nothing. I'm afraid Prime Minister Han may have remembered it wrong."

"Remember it wrong? Well, that means I remembered it wrong."

Han Qi smiled wickedly, "Do you know Su Shi?"

Sima Guang frowned and said, "I heard that his two brothers are preparing for the exams in science and technology. They are very confident."

"Yes, that man is confident...arrogant."

Han Qi smiled and said: "He has a good relationship with Shen An, but some people say that he will be destroyed in the Secret Pavilion... Are you satisfied?"

Sima Guang frowned and said: "Xiang Han... These words are inexplicably surprising. Xiaguan has no grudges with Shen An, and he has no grudges with Su Shi... Xianguan didn't understand what Han Xiang said, so he resigned..."

Han Qi watched him go out with a smile. Later, a clerk came in from outside.

"Mr. Sir, Sima Guang is indeed upright!"

This is Han Qi's confidant, and he dares to say anything.

Han Qi picked up the teacup, took a sip, and said with a smile: "Go and keep an eye on Sima Guang alone to see where he went."

Later, the news came, "Mr. Sir, after Sima Guang left our place, he returned to the official's house and never left."

"Ha ha ha ha!"

Han Qi laughed loudly, and his heart was puzzled, but he didn't know the reason.

After laughing enough, Han Qi said disdainfully: "What kind of gentleman? If he was really a gentleman, he should have argued with me before, and he should have immediately informed Su Shi to avoid danger after leaving. But where did he go?"

The confidant was a little shocked when he thought about it, and said: "Is it... fake?"

Han Qi sneered: "How many true gentlemen are there in this world? Fan Wenzheng is one of them, Bao Zheng is not included, and Ouyang Xiu is not included... He Sima Guang thinks he is rich, but he is a hypocrite in his heart."

Han Qi leaned back on the chair and said comfortably: "There are not so many gentlemen in this world. Fan Wenzheng is an exception. It is rare to find one in a hundred years. The rest are either villains, hypocrites, or mediocre people..."

His words involved him, but he was content with them.

The two Su Shi brothers were well prepared. In the early morning of that day, Su Xun woke them up early. The father and son had a hurried breakfast and then went out together.

Su Shi yawned easily, and Su Xun said: "You had a fight with someone the day before yesterday, and I don't know who you injured. Fortunately, the person didn't care. Otherwise, would you still be able to take the exam today? Be more cautious in the future and don't make mistakes. Day…ouch!”

The door opened. As soon as Su Xun went out, he bumped into someone and threw himself at him.

"oops!"

There were several people sitting on the steps, and Su Xun subconsciously threw himself on the back of the person in the middle. That person's body was about to jump forward, but he withstood the impact.

Su Xun stabilized his body and was so scared that he broke out in sweat.

The man in the middle turned around, and Su Shi who came out after hearing the sound couldn't help but said in surprise: "Follow the way?"

People on the left and right also stood up, and Su Shi was suddenly moved: "Yuan Ze, Zhong Zhen, eh..."

The three of them were sitting on the steps outside the gate, dozing off. They must have come early to wait because they didn't know when the brothers were going out.

This kind of friendship makes people...

"Where's Anbei?"

These four people are almost inseparable. When the three of them are here, Shen An shouldn't be away.

Zhao Zhongzhen rubbed his eyes and said, "Brother An Bei said earlier that he was going to buy breakfast..."

Su Xun was moved and said, "What else are you buying? Let's eat together outside."

The group of people walked out of the alley in the dark and saw Shen An coming with two vendors.

"Anbei!"

Su Shi waved, and Shen An hurried over, cupping his hands and saying: "But I was a little too anxious, so I ordered steamed buns and medicinal soup. You can't eat the soup cakes, otherwise frequent visits will attract people's attention..."

Su Xun raised his hands and thanked him: "Thank you Anbei for all your hard work."

Shen An smiled and said: "It's hard work, we are all in the same group."

Su Che looked at these young people curiously, wondering why his brother could be friends with them.

One is a clan member, one is a warrior, one is a yameni, and one is an official...

What a strange combination!

The two vendors skillfully prepared the hot steamed buns and said with a smile: "This gentleman said that you only need steamed buns. If that's not enough, there are also meat buns..."

Su Shi was puzzled. He was a glutton and would never eat vegetables if there was meat.

Su Xun scolded: "Eat while squatting! After eating the plain steamed buns, you will feel refreshed and your head will not be dizzy."

Shen An nodded and said, "That's exactly what I mean."

When you need to keep your mind clear, if you are in good physical condition, it is best to eat less meat.

After eating vegetarian steamed buns and drinking soup, the group of people surrounded Su Shi brothers and went to the imperial city.

At this moment, the sky was just a little brighter, but the palace door was not open.

Su Shi was taking a nap against the city wall, but Su Che was not as confident as him and looked a little nervous.

Later, when the sky dimmed, officials began to arrive, and the zombie siege reappeared.

Brother Su Shi had never seen such a scene before and couldn't help but be stunned.

"It's open."

After opening the door, Su Shi cupped his hands and said, "Thank you for your kindness. I will definitely not come back without success."

This is Su Xian!

In the Tang Dynasty, there was Li Bai and Li Qinglian, and in the Song Dynasty, there was Su Shi and Su Dongpo. The two of them were famous for a while.

Shen An cupped his hands and said, "I'm waiting for good news."

Su Shi said confidently: "Please prepare some fine wine. When we come out, I will conspire to get drunk with all the virtuous brothers."

This guy was very confident, but the other two candidates next to him were very nervous.

Only four people have passed the preliminary test this time. In other words, there are currently only four candidates for such a careful exam.

This is Zhike!

Those who can pass the Royal Examination in the end are either super talented or have superior IQ.

"Su Shi!"

Just when Su Shi was about to go in, there was a loud shout from behind, and then several men rushed over. One of them grabbed Su Shi, and the other punched him and prepared to punch him.

How dare you touch Su Shi in front of me? I call you Immortal Banban!

Shen An couldn't help but be stunned.

The one who took action was a young man in his early twenties. The one who held Su Shi was a teenager, and the one who punched was a young man in his early twenties. They both looked ferocious.

Shen An subconsciously flew up and kicked down the young man who was punching him. Zhao Zhongzhen knocked down the young man who was about the same age as himself with one punch, and then went up to touch up his feet.

Several men who followed these two men rushed over with roars. Zhe Kexing sneered and stood ready, but Wang Yu rushed forward.

grass!

Seeing this, Zhe Kexing had no choice but to take action in advance.

After they dealt with these people, when they turned around, they saw Shen An holding the young man with one hand and beating him violently.

Zhao Zhongzhen had already stopped and was explaining to the clan elders who were coming to court: "Today is the day for the academic examinations. These people who came to intercept are probably motivated by evil intentions..."

He looked very innocent and spoke sincerely, making people think of the word honesty.

What a good boy!

The young man who was beaten by Shen An over there shouted: "It's Su Shi first..."

Shen An sealed his eyes with a punch, then knocked him to the ground with a slap, shouting: "Zizhan, go in quickly, don't let the mad dog bite you."

Su Shi was still confused and didn't know why. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you An Bei. If you have anything to do, wait until Mr. and Mrs. come out."

Waiting for you!

Judging from what this young man meant, Su Shi had clearly done something to offend him. If he really wanted to argue, Su Shi's exam would be in vain.

The young man was lying on the ground and shouted: "Su Shi, you...wuwuwu!"

Shen An stretched out her foot and stepped on his mouth, then raised her hands to Sima Guang, who was frowning beside him, and said, "Does Mr. Sima want to come and fight with someone?"

Sima Guang shook his head and then entered the imperial city with a straight face.

"Brother An Bei, he must be planning to impeach you."

Bao Zheng and Wang Anshi are not here, so Shen An and Wang Yu are a little unscrupulous.

"I'm so scared!"

When Shen An saw the Su Shi brothers entering, he advised Su Xun to go to the Yamen quickly to avoid being impeached.

After Su Xun left with all his thanks, the guards had to be free.

"Wai Zhao, this...is your foot loose?"

Shen An kept his foot on the young man's mouth. When he let go, the young man's lips were swollen like sausages.

He opened his mouth and shouted: "Help..."

The guard helped him up and asked him his identity.

"Someone is from the Wang family...the Wang family from Taiyuan..."

"Taiyuan Wang family?"

Shen An didn't know this family existed, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net But Wang Yu whispered: "Brother An Bei is a son of a powerful person."

The young man who was knocked down by Zhao Zhongzhen said angrily: "Wang Shen, if I can't kill you today, I will kill you tomorrow."

Zhao Zhongzhen said with an innocent face: "Look at this man, he said he wanted to kill someone."

The guards' eyes were cold, and Wang Shen was startled and asked, "Who are you?"

Zhao Zhongzhen said very innocently: "A certain Zhao Zhongzhen."

"Clan son?"

Wang Shen was dumbfounded, but he didn't see Shen An grinning.
