"Your Majesty is so kind to me, but I can't repay you even if I'm a humble minister!" Zhao Liangsi fell to the ground, raised his hands and took the jade belt, tears streaming down his face. When Zhao Liangsi boarded the sedan, his excitement still hadn't subsided. The emperor's favor and trust in him filled his body with strength. He was determined to push the behemoth of the Song Dynasty to Fa Yan as quickly as possible. The journey was for the emperor, for the Song Dynasty, and for himself. Thinking of this, he clenched his fists and ordered the attendants outside: "Go to Tong Xiang's Mansion!" Because of the suppression of the Fang La Rebellion, Tong Guan Not long ago, he became the grand master and the Duke of Chu. As a eunuch, he was extremely prosperous. His mansion was also renovated and became even more magnificent. As an important confidant of Tong Guan, Zhao Liangsi did not have to wait in a long queue like other officials waiting outside the gate. Instead, he walked straight in. This enviable treatment caused a ripple outside the gate. "Where does this important person come from, and he doesn't need to be notified? Our family has spent three to five hundred dollars on the door bag alone, but we don't even know which way to open the second door of the Tong Mansion!" A fat, full-bodied man The red-faced official in Tsing Yi with a foreign accent asked others with envy on his face. "Pfft!" The man on the side was also dressed in green clothes, but it had turned a little white after washing. He was obviously a little short of money, but his face was already full of disdain at this time, and he obviously despised the fat man's ignorance. But with a serious Tokyo accent, "Even Bachelor Zhao Longtu Zhao who returned to the south doesn't know, what a shame you still want to take the path of a childlike figure!" How come you know so much? I dare you to explain it to me!" The respect from others satisfied the vanity of this official. He laughed twice and said, "This scholar Zhao is from Yan because he admires me, the Chinese. Shangguo, a few years ago went south to join us in the Song Dynasty. The emperor personally promoted and appointed him. What an honor. Moreover, he is a key figure in the major event of conquest of Liao Dynasty that the court is currently dealing with. If the restoration of Yan is completed, . Even becoming a king is not impossible!" At this point. The official's face was filled with envy, as if he wished he could take his place. "People from Yan? Doesn't that mean cutting off the traitors?" The fat man had a look of disdain on his face. "How can we say he is a traitor?" The official from the capital suddenly turned pale, and he stammered in retort: ??"The sage said, 'Is it the king's soil in the whole world, and the king's ministers on the shore of the land. Even if they are Yan people. How can I, a citizen of the Song Dynasty, be called a traitor?" Zhao Liangsi could no longer hear the quarrel outside the gate. Of course, even if he could hear it, he would just laugh it off. This controversial figure in later generations firmly believed that he did not need to pay too much attention to these mediocre comments. His personal destiny depends on the success or failure of the great cause of uniting Jin Dynasty and conquering Liao Dynasty. So far, although there are some twists and turns in the process, the overall situation is proceeding according to his plan. But now we have reached a critical step. When he thinks of this, Zhao Liangsi feels a fire burning in his chest. "Ms. Zhao, the master is waiting for you inside. Please come in!" The butler of the Tong Mansion made an inviting gesture. This middle-aged man, who had a haughty expression on his face most of the time, was full of flattery at this time. smile. "Thank you!" Zhao Liangsi stopped being polite at this time and walked quickly into the hall. He saw Tong Guan leaning on the Arhat bed, and two pretty maids beside him were carefully fanning him. Seeing Zhao Liangsi come in, Tong Guan did not get up, but raised his chin slightly and said: "Look at the seat for Mr. Zhao!" "Thank you Mr. Tong!" Zhao Liangsi cupped his hands and said in a low voice: "It's already downstairs. I met with the officials and reported the matter to Yanjing. The officials have agreed to send troops!" "Well!" Tong Guan's face remained calm as usual. He sat up and said, "You have to pay close attention to the matter with Li Chuwen. As for the emperor, Over there, we have to hurry up. If this kind of thing is not finalized, nothing can be done!" "What Mr. Tong said is true!" Zhao Liangsi nodded and said, "Mr. Tong, I have one more thing to do today! "Who?" Tong Guan asked, "For what purpose?" "This person." Zhao Liangsi said with a smile: "This person is said to have extraordinary courage and experience in serving as an envoy to Yanjing. He is a rare talent. Originally, I planned to ask the Master Master and the Supreme Master to contact Li Chuwen, but These two people are already familiar with the Jin leaders. This matter of contacting Li Chuwen is quite dangerous, so just let this person do it! " "Well, that's good!" Tong Guan nodded, what Zhao Liangsi meant. It is clear that Ma Kuo and Monk Zhishan have established a very good personal relationship with the leader of the Jin people during their contacts with the Jin people. This relationship is very valuable in the diplomatic contact between the two countries. If it is put into life and death, It would be a pity to get involved in the unknown plot to instigate Li Chuwen. It would be better to use this to be recommended.?Young people, it¡¯s good to succeed anyway, but it¡¯s no big deal if you fail. "What is this person's name? Where does he serve now?" Tong Guan gestured lazily. For him who was already in charge of the Privy Council, this was just a piece of cake. "My surname is Zhou Mingping. I'm currently working as an escort on the east-west road of Beijing." "Zhou Ping?" Tong Guan had a puzzled look on his face. After a moment, he patted his forehead and said, "So it's this person!" "Could it be that Tong Gong knows about it? This person?" Zhao Liangsi asked. "It doesn't matter if he is this person, he is a lucky general after all!" Tong Guan said with a smile. Tokyo, Lincaiguan. It is located 40 miles southeast of Kaifeng. During the Five Dynasties, Zhou Xiande dredged the Min River into the Cai River and along the Ying River into the Huai River to cut down the Southern Tang Dynasty. It was here. It was an important gateway from the southeast to the capital. By the Xuanhe period, the southeast had long been peaceful, and this pass naturally ceased to exist. Only a tax collection gate remained. There were many people coming and going, and there were many inns and teahouses along the river. Shops and food stalls have turned into a small market town. "Brother, we have arrived at Caiguan. Rest here for one night. You can go to Kaifeng tomorrow morning!" familiar. "Yes!" Zhou Ping nodded. He turned around and said to everyone: "Everyone will just stay here for one night. When we get to a certain house in the capital, we will treat everyone to a good meal!" Everyone stood up and responded. Zhou Ping jumped off his horse and said, Throwing the reins to the waiter who came up to the store: "All the horses have been well fed, and we will be on the road tomorrow!" "Don't worry, sir!" The waiter responded, took the reins, and said with a smile: "Good luck, sir." "Extremely generous. Is this the first time in your life that you have seen so many good horses?" It turns out that Zhou Ping's group only has more than thirty people, but there are more than a hundred horses. In addition to everyone's master and slaves, there are also There are more than 20 camels and horses carrying luggage and more than 20 mules, which are indeed very rare in the Northern Song Dynasty where there was a shortage of horses. ""Don't talk too much and send the beans quickly. If it swallows up the master's whip, be careful!" Li Cheng shouted behind him, took half a pound of money from his waist and threw it away. "Easy to say, easy to say!" The waiter in the shop smiled and said, "But the barn in the store is not big enough. I'm afraid it can't hold so many horses. Can some of them be stored in the barn in the store next door?" " Zhou Ping and his party entered the shop. Someone had already brought food to them. Everyone occupied six or seven tables and started eating. Zhou Ping took a few bites and saw the smiles on the tables of several of his subordinates who had followed him to the capital. He couldn't help but feel in his heart. With a sudden movement, he asked: "Liangyu, are you happy to come to Beijing with me this time?" " "Happy? Of course I'm happy! " "But you already have a mission in Guide Mansion. You have two hundred cavalry under you, and you are also a battalion commander. This time you follow me to Beijing, and the result is still unknown! "Zhou Ping was talking about his own concerns at this time. After he took office in Guide Mansion, he trained sergeants and trained brave men among the returned thieves. In a few months, he already had an army with considerable combat effectiveness. , but a document from the imperial court broke all this. He was transferred to Beijing to serve in the Xuanfu Division. Although it seemed to others that he was promoted, in his own eyes, he suddenly became a polished commander. This kind of It feels really uncomfortable. ¡°That¡¯s nothing! Xue Liangyu smiled and said: "Everyone in the world knows that if a warrior wants to be promoted, it is best to work under Tong Xiang." The eldest brother was transferred to serve under the Xuanfu Division. It was a blessing from the sky, and the subordinates naturally wanted to get some glory. If you don¡¯t believe me, ask Yang Wu and Kong Yanzhou who are staying in Guide Mansion, which one doesn¡¯t want to follow you to the capital? " "yes! When we left, Lao Kong was about to cry! Li Cheng on the side said: "Is it because you can't bear to let me be a rough guy?" You have obviously lost the opportunity to come to the capital to have fun! " Looking at the smiling faces of his men on the table, Zhou Ping couldn't help but reveal a wry smile. It seemed that he was worrying too much. The men in front of him didn't have any consciousness of warlords at all, but that's fine. After all, that kind of warriors rely on their troops to strengthen themselves. The era when the emperor is the one who has strong soldiers and horses is really terrible. If he can eliminate the catastrophe, even if he can't control the heavy troops, wouldn't it be a good thing for the people of the world to be safe? Zhou Ping was thinking, suddenly something happened outside. There was a sound of yelling. He raised his head and looked towards where the sound came from. He saw that the waiter in the shop was using a wooden stick to drive the two unkempt men out of the door, yelling: "Where are these poor people from?" , don¡¯t you take a long look to see if this is where you should come in? " One of the two men seemed to be in a semi-conscious state. He was held in the arms of his companion. He used his body to block the sticks that were raining down from the waiter, and shouted: "My brother is sick. Please give me a sip of hot soup from the store. Just take pity on us two brothers and save a life! "(To be continued, please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!
