A Great Man of the Northern Song Dynasty

Chapter 386: Jiaozhi Bubbles

Zhao Zhongzhen doesn’t know what human heart is, let alone human nature.

He has a very good relationship with Wang Yu. The two often go for walks together, and Bianliang City is their playground.

He thought about it for two days but found nothing, so he went to ask Zhao Yunrang but was disappointed.

Lao Zhao had an aristocratic understanding of human nature, and he spoke in a dark direction for a long time, which made Zhao Zhongzhen look confused and felt that there was no such thing as truth, goodness, and beauty in this world.

In the end, he had no choice but to come to Shen An for advice.

He walked all the way, looking at the people around him from time to time to figure out their inner world.

"Hey! Then... is that Wang Yu?"

"Yes, Mr. Wang, Mr. Wang is buying fried quail!"

Outside a small shop, Wang Yu stood there, talking to the young woman.

A smile appeared on his face. This smile was less arrogant than before, and it was a pure smile.

His eyes were bright, as if he had discovered some treasure.

The quails were fried, but Wang Yu was holding on to the oil paper bag and refused to leave. The woman was already greeting the guests nearby, and occasionally smiled at him.

Zhao Zhongzhen raised his head slightly, thought about the two people, and said, "The woman seems to be... curious about Wang Yu, right?"

Yang Mo said: "That woman is ordinary-looking! She is a little pretty at most. She looks like...she is trying to deal with Wang Langjun!"

Zhao Zhongzhen said proudly: "I think so too. And Yuanze... I feel like he... likes that woman, but he is a little timid and pretends... to pretend not to care. Yes, he is just timid, as if he is afraid of getting hurt. As for this woman...is that woman his treasure? So cautious."

Wang Yu over there hesitated and said nonchalantly: "That... so-and-so is gone..."

Zuo Zhen was collecting money. When she heard this, she raised her head and said, "Okay! Come tomorrow, I'll get you a big quail..."

This was something she liked to say recently, but Wang Yu didn't care about it. He glanced at Zuo Zhen again and saw that she accepted the money with a smile and then started to fry the quails, and his eyebrows became sad.

He left quietly, and Zuo Zhen glanced at his back and said with a smile, "Young people are fun."

He walked slowly with a heavy paper bag in his hand.

Suddenly there was a light touch in his hand, and Wang Yu said angrily: "Who?"

“It tastes good!”

Zhao Zhongzhen bit off the thickest part of the quail in one bite and swallowed it in two or three bites.

Wang Yu didn't even want to give away the fried quail he bought. Today, Zhao Zhongzhen snatched it away, and his face suddenly turned blue.

This is real?

He actually fell in love with that woman?

Zhao Zhongzhen's heart skipped a beat, and then he raised his hands in surrender: "I'm wrong. I'll go back to her house and buy one for you."

"don't want!"

Wang Yu accelerated his steps and disappeared within a few clicks.

"Is he really angry?"

Zhao Zhongzhen felt that the fragrant quail was a bit bitter, so he said depressedly: "That woman looks like a woman at first glance. What's wrong with him?"

All the way to Shen's house, Wang Yu was also there.

He seemed to be back to normal now, but he spoke less.

"The human heart and human nature...brother An Bei, how do you think about it?"

Zhao Zhongzhen asked this question very distressedly. In the past, Wang Yu would have had a venomous tongue, but today he was silent.

Shen An glanced at Wang Yu and said: "The human heart and human nature, these two are the proof of people living in the world. Selfishness is human nature, sitting and watching the boat capsize in the Bian River is the human heart... You have to think about these things, First of all, you have to experience it...anything without experience is just talk on paper.”

"experience?"

"Yes, the easiest thing is to watch."

As an emperor, it is his duty to study people. If you have great ability to study people, you are basically either a wise emperor or a powerful ruler.

If you don't know how to think about people, they are probably mediocre kings.

Shen An must teach him this life skill.

"You look at a person's words and deeds, and then observe how he responds to various things, and slowly summarize, you will figure out the person's character. When you think about it more, you can roughly understand a person just by looking at him. Know what his nature is."

Zhao Zhongzhen was thinking, obviously ready to put it into practice.

Wang Yu whispered: "This will make you gloomy..."

Think about it, a young man stares at people and ponders all day long, that scene...

Now that Zhao Zhongzhen has become like this, will Zhao Zongshi fight against you?

Wang Yu was very worried about this.

He is not worried about Zhao Yunrang. According to rumors, the prince is very dignified and has the demeanor of an elder.

"The Prince of Runan County is the elder of the clan, so I think he will be reasonable."

Shen An looked at him with strange eyes.

Wang Yu was puzzled by what he saw and asked, "Isn't it inappropriate?"

"Appropriate, this evaluation is extremely appropriate."

Zhao Yunrang is a reasonable clan elder...

Shen An just wanted to greet this evaluation with laughter.

"What? Let you think about people?"

Zhao Yunrang scolded: "Who asked you to do it? It must be the official who has nothing to do. If he has nothing to do, he should take care of the harem. Isn't it enough for him to enjoy so many beauties..."

The old guy's yelling and cursing voice resounded through the sky, and the old servant and Asu didn't even blink. They were obviously used to it.

Zhao Zhongzhen's lips moved a few times, and there was a battle between heaven and man between saying that he might be beaten, and not saying that Zhao Zhen would have been lying on the gun.

"Weng Weng..."

"What are you doing? I haven't had enough scolding yet, just wait."

The old guy continued to curse for another quarter of an hour, and then the old servant thought that his throat was almost dry, so he brought him a cup of tea.

"Alang, drink before you curse."

Zhao Yunrang drank the tea in one gulp and was about to continue yelling. Zhao Zhongzhen beside him couldn't bear to see Zhao Zhen continue to lie down with his gun, so he said, "Weng Weng, it was Brother An Bei who asked his grandson to do this."

The atmosphere solidified instantly.

Zhao Zhongzhen was worried that he would be beaten, so he shrank his neck.

But Zhao Yunrang just glanced at him and then asked, "Isn't he afraid that you will become gloomy?"

Let a young man ponder people's hearts, and he will become gloomy accidentally.

Not being beaten was an unexpected surprise, Zhao Zhongzhen said: "It doesn't matter if he is gloomy or precocious, it is better than being deceived and deceived in the end."

"That's the truth. What a good boy. He is more thoughtful than me. He is indeed a young man that even the officials can't stop praising..."

"That shameless old guy, that's all. Don't pay attention to him."

Zhao Zhen had no time to pay attention to the old gangster Zhao Yunrang. He took the report and said with a headache: "The report from Guangxi is coming, and the Jiaozhi side is getting ready to move again... Shen An originally said that the people of Jiaozhi are capricious and that they are a country of villains. Now it seems true! Go and summon the prime ministers and assistants to discuss the matter."

Finally, the Xixia side calmed down, the Liao people's blackmail also failed, and one tiger and one wolf settled down...

"If the Liao people are tigers, then the Xixia people are wolves. Now tigers and wolves are at peace, but here comes the wild dog Jiaozhi!"

Han Qi said disdainfully: "Do they dare to attack the city?"

Fu Bi felt that he was underestimating the enemy, so he said calmly: "Nong Zhigao dares, but do you think Li Rizun dares?"

Han Qi frowned and said: "But that will start a war between the two countries...Does Jiaozhi have the strength to start a war with the Song Dynasty? If it takes a long time, they may persist?"

Fu Bi was a little confused. After all, he didn't know much about Jiaozhi.

"What do Song Qing think?"

The privy envoy Song Xiang was called, and he went out and said: "Your Majesty, minister... there is a lot of miasma over there in Jiaozhi, and there must be no war!"

Song Xiang looked much older, and his expression was blank.

He’s old!

Zhao Zhen frowned slightly. At this time of chaos in Jiaozhi, the Privy Council is a top priority and cannot be ignored. Moreover, if an important minister is required to lead an expedition, it is more convenient for the privy envoy.

He glanced at the ministers and assistants. It was impossible for Fu Bi to go to war, Han Qi... that's all, Zeng Gongliang...

"Song Qing is not feeling well?"

Song Xiang came out and said: "Exactly, Your Majesty, I have been feeling low in energy recently and have been sitting in the Privy Council for a long time. Your Majesty, I would like to return to my hometown for retirement..."

After a while of silence, Zhao Zhen said: "Let's take a rest first, and then I will make arrangements."

Is this accurate?

Song Xiang bowed his head and resigned. Everyone felt desolate and sad, and they were immediately attracted by the vacant post of Privy Councilor.

Zhao Zhen glanced at Fu Bi, and the emperor and his ministers already had a tacit understanding about this day.

"Zeng Gongliang...can be the privy envoy."

This was said by Zhao Zhen. The position of Prime Minister and Assistant Minister does not allow others to comment.

Fu Bi immediately went out and said: "Your Majesty is wise."

Zeng Gongliang came out of class to thank him, and the matter was initially settled.

"Sun Pian can participate in politics."

This is to fill the vacancy left by Zeng Gongliang.

"Ouyang Xiu...deputy privy envoy."

The dim-eyed Ouyang Xiu finally succeeded in getting himself into the Privy Council.

The above appointments were all discussed with Fu Bi. Han Qi was helpless and could only agree depressedly.

Then came Zhao Zhen’s private goods.

"Sima Guang and Wang Anshi... fellow practitioners' daily life notes."

Fellow practitioners' daily notes are official positions, historians, historians who specialize in recording the words and deeds of emperors.

Sima Guang and Wang Anshi were spotted at the same time...

The prime ministers and assistants were all laughing secretly.

Last time Wang Anshi's son and Shen An beat up the censor Chen Ting, Sima Guang wanted to compete, but Wang Anshi turned to favoritism. The two seem to be fine now, but secretly who knows if there is any discord.

It’s fun to watch!

"Your Majesty is wise."

The ministers and ministers all agreed with this appointment, which made Zhao Zhen feel proud for a moment. He felt that he was a good judge of people, but he did not know that the ministers and ministers wanted to watch the fun.

He was feeling complacent, and then he thought of the Jiaozhi incident, and said a little embarrassedly: "That... that... the Jiaozhi incident..."

He glanced at Fu Bi calmly.

What does the Prime Minister do?

Don't say anything else, UU Reading www.uukanshu.net The prime minister must first stand with the emperor, be able to observe what the emperor is thinking, and then communicate and cooperate with each other.

Fu Bi was an old minister, and Zhao Zhen just glanced at him and guessed what this embarrassment meant.

Cochin is difficult to handle.

If the two countries faced each other on flat ground, the Song Dynasty would definitely be worthy of victory.

But there is a dense miasma there, with many mountains and dense forests, so it is easy for the army from the north to deliver food.

Back then, just Nong Zhigao caused the Song Dynasty to suffer a lot, but now Jiaozhi is bubbling...

What to do?

Need to brainstorm ideas!

Last time, Shen An spoke ill of the Jiaozhi people, saying that they were shameless and greedy, so they would definitely come to Song Dynasty to find food.

At that time, everyone did not take it seriously, thinking that he exaggerated the courage of the Cochin people, but now it has been verified one by one.

Shame on you!

A group of old men claimed to have all their plans, but they were defeated by a young man. If everyone hadn't been so shameless, they would probably have had no choice but to hide their faces and leave at this moment.

"Your Majesty, how about...calling more people...to brainstorm ideas?"

It would be embarrassing to call Shen An alone, but it could be covered up by calling a few more.

Zhao Zhen also felt that this was good, and his face was saved at least, so he said: "This is very good."

The third update is here, good night everyone.
