Chapter 171 Shen An, the Divine Fortune Teller
Han Qi was smiling, a noble and upright smile.
But now this face is full of pale smile.
He looked at Shen An in disbelief.
He thought the whole thing was a joke.
Everyone thought that today he would hold Shen An accountable for last night, but no one thought that he and his staff had been planning for a long time last night, and finally decided on a plan to launch a surprise attack and prepare to drive Shen An out of the court in one fell swoop.
He thought this plan was foolproof, so he came in full of energy in the morning.
He wasn't even prepared to deal with failure, so he was completely confused now.
Wang Anshi glanced at Shen An and thought that this incident was not arranged by him, right?
But as soon as he changed his mind, he felt something was wrong.
If Shen An had this ability, Jin Cheng would have to be a fool.
In other words, Jin Chengdao is his own memorial.
"Your Majesty, Jin Chengdao is outside the palace and said he wants to enter the palace to plead guilty."
This was another stab, and Wang Anshi even heard Han Qi's painful sigh.
Zhao Zhen blinked, coughed dryly, and asked, "Is there any fraud in this matter?"
After saying this, I almost wanted to ask directly: Korean people can't be so mean, right? He actually came to beg for mercy?
It stands to reason that the prime ministers and ministers should speak out and clear up the doubts of the officials.
But the prime ministers and assistants were just in a daze.
We don’t know!
Zhao Zhen knew what it was for, so he said, "Shen An, tell me."
Shen An left work with an innocent look on his face.
Neither arrogant nor impatient!
Wang Anshi nodded slightly when he saw this, feeling that Shen An was much better than his own son.
"His Majesty."
Shen An said: "The diplomacy of the Song Dynasty at the moment is nothing more than the four countries."
"Liao, Xixia, Jiaozhi, Goryeo, the rest are just soy sauce people... no, they are just messing around."
This analysis is a bit rough, but the words are rough and the reasoning is not rough. The analysis is very insightful.
Zhao Zhen nodded slightly, feeling that he was indeed wise in sending Shen An to the Privy Council.
Shen An stood in the middle, his eyes calm, as if he hadn't heard Han Qi's attack just now.
“The way of diplomacy is first and foremost force.”
Shen An glanced at Han Qi and said, "If the Song Dynasty's military force is the best in the world, then would Jin Chengdao dare to go to the Liao envoy?"
"So swords and guns were the forerunners of the Song Dynasty's diplomacy, but it's a pity that we don't have them."
Shen An's words seemed to be regretful, but everyone present couldn't help but look at Han Qi.
Back then, you took your elite soldiers to fight the Xixia people, but you came back with your face covered in blood. In the end, you could only negotiate and give the Xixia people yearly coins and benefits in exchange for peace.
Han Qi's body shook, and his face was as white as paper.
It was a place of humiliation in his life that he never wanted to mention.
"Without the backing of swords and guns, Song Dynasty's diplomacy would have to be patient."
Shen An really felt that the Song Dynasty lacked diplomats, so he had a feeling of overlooking all living beings, which was very refreshing. And he knew the subsequent changes in the situation, and when he analyzed it at this moment, it was really like playing a game with a cheat device on. It felt like...
Why is it so sour and refreshing?
"Analyze, analyze first and then act. The second thing is to be patient..."
Shen An sighed: "Jin Chengdao went to see the Liao envoys three times, but they were only for the Song Dynasty. It made us nervous to see who would surrender first... But how could Goryeo have the confidence to compete with the Song Dynasty?"
Han Qi's face turned green, thinking that these words were talking about him.
"The Koryo people were most afraid of the Liao people, and secondly, they were most afraid of the Song Dynasty leaving them alone."
The orphans on this continent are the Koreans. They are not strong enough, so they have developed a unique skill.
——Fool on the wall!
Shen An said seriously: "Don't worry, and there is no need to worry about losing any vassals. The Koreans can't give the Song Dynasty any benefits. If they lose it, it is lost. Is the Song Dynasty in a hurry?"
Da Song is in a hurry!
The Song Dynasty and the Korean people faced each other across the sea. The Korean people admired the culture and wealth of the Song Dynasty, so they took the initiative to stick together.
At this moment, the Song Dynasty is rich and handsome, while the Korean is just a humble girl.
This shabby-looking girl wants to marry a rich and handsome man like Da Song, so Da Song should be more reserved.
Shen An felt that these monarchs and ministers all needed to receive some diplomatic education to avoid the joke of joining forces with the Jin Dynasty to fight against the Liao Dynasty in the future.
"The Koreans are worthless, and the Liao people have no interest in eating them, but the Song Dynasty flocks to them. But they are still separated by the sea. Can the Song Dynasty build a bridge to connect these vassals?"
Zhao Zhen felt very interesting when he heard this. He asked: "What do you mean, the Korean people are jumping up and down these days just to show the Song Dynasty?"
"That's right."
Shen An said firmly: "As long as we are stable, Jin Chengdao will naturally panic. He will be worried that the Song Dynasty will be angry, and then cut off all contacts with Goryeo. What else does Goryeo have?"
"It's just an island!"
Shen An said calmly: "How dare you look down on Da Song! Even they are worthy of it!"
"good!"
While Shen An was talking, the atmosphere in the hall had been gradually rising. Until now, someone couldn't help but shout "Hello".
Zhao Zhen was listening attentively. When he heard the voice, he saw that it was Wang Anshi.
Wang Anshi had a stubborn temper and rarely lost his temper like this, so Zhao Zhen couldn't help but smile.
When he smiled, the atmosphere relaxed.
Fu Bi came out and said, "Your Majesty, it's not good for the Korean envoy to stay outside for a long time. How about calling him in?"
Why!
Shen An felt that the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty were still too gentle.
At this time, we should leave him alone, let him stand there lonely, empty and cold, thinking about the mistakes Gao Li made, and then beg Da Song to forgive him.
Zhao Zhen was previously worried that the Koreans had left the Song Dynasty aside. As soon as Shen An explained, he immediately relaxed and said with a smile, "Tell me, gentlemen, what will Jin Chengdao say when he comes?"
Han Qi still stood there in a daze, his face pale.
Fu Bi glanced at him and said, "Your Majesty, you are probably just fooling me."
Zhao Zhen sighed: "But he went to see the Liao envoy three times... I guess he will admit his mistake."
Shen An felt that the monarchs and ministers in the palace overestimated the integrity of the Korean people. He said with a strange expression: "Your Majesty, I guess... he will say that going to the Liao envoy is a private matter..."
"Private matter?"
Zhao Zhen said in surprise: "The Koreans are most afraid of the Liao people. How could he have the courage to seek out the Liao envoys for private matters?"
Shen An sighed: "Your Majesty, I am the one in the Song Dynasty who is full of nobles and gentlemen, so naturally I can't understand other people's thoughts. For example... the Liao envoy has good mutton there and he has good wine, so he set up a Partner……"
"Cough cough cough!"
Wang Anshi couldn't help coughing. When he saw everyone in the palace looking at him, he cupped his hands and said, "I suffered some cold on the road. Please forgive me."
He had just arrived at the court and didn't know Shen An's nature, so he couldn't get used to it for a while.
Of course, Zhao Zhen would not blame him, but said: "I will ask the imperial doctor to show Wang Qing later. Get all the medicine from me, and get the best."
"Thank you, Your Majesty."
Everyone was accustomed to the emperor's kindness, so the atmosphere was harmonious.
Only Han Qi stood there blankly. Although he was standing in the class, he seemed to be alone, especially lonely.
Jin Chengdao came later and looked at Cheng with fear.
After saluting, Zhao Zhen said calmly: "Where did the envoy come from?"
The emperor is sitting high above, and the important ministers below are very dignified. The guards beside him are all 1.8 meters tall, and it is almost impossible to tell the difference...
The momentum immediately suppressed Jin Chengdao.
He smiled and said: "Your Majesty, the foreign minister learned that the previous missions caused trouble to the local area and has already sent a letter to the country..."
This is submission.
But it's not enough.
Zhao Zhen said coldly: "I heard that the envoy is busy?"
The words came.
All the ministers were staring at Jin Chengdao, but he sighed and said: "Chen... the foreign minister brought some good wine, and the Liao envoy had some good mutton. The Liao envoy invited him, and the foreign minister was greedy for a moment. The people who lost Korea..."
After he finished speaking, he felt a little uneasy. After all, this reason was not quite right.
Goryeo had experienced Liao's military confrontation many times. When the two countries were in crisis for a while, Goryeo envoys often visited Liao envoy Tao Jing.
But this is peacetime. You went to see the Liao envoy three times in two days. Do you like roast mutton so much?
But when he glanced out of the corner of his eye, he felt something was wrong.
Where are these people looking?
He took another look at it, risking being scolded for being rude, and then was confused.
Why are all the monarchs and ministers of the Song Dynasty looking at Shen An?
And he seemed extremely shocked...
