Chapter 969 Perfect match for monarchs and ministers, can we fight?(1/2)
Zeng Gongliang felt that this matter was a bit absurd. "If the Liao army threatened the troops, they would threaten them. The Song Dynasty ignored it. Could it be that Yelu Hongji dared to invade? Then the Song Dynasty would attack him with Xixia."
"The Song Dynasty cannot be threatened!"
Chen An doesn't like this numb attitude.
It was probably because I was used to being bullied by the Liao people in the past, so I was calm in the court when I encountered such a thing, and I felt quite calm in spitting on my face.
Zeng Gongliang frowned, "Threat is threatening. If there are too many such things, the Song Dynasty responds every time, and then he will be exhausted."
"Then threaten back!"
Zeng Gongliang slowly looked up at Han Qi.
Chen An discovered that there was another Han Qi in the court who didn't like being threatened and didn't like being angry.
Han Qi said dissatisfiedly: "In the past, the Song Dynasty pretended to be... the grandson was just a last resort. Now the Liao people started a war with Xixia and stationed troops to threaten the Song Dynasty. What does this mean?"
"Yelu Hongji feels that he can defeat the Song Dynasty and Xixia at the same time." Chen An said very disdainful. This is what the police in later generations thought, and for this, they were fighting for military force.
"Then make him!"
Han Qi waved his fists and roared, "Your Majesty, when the Great Song Dynasty and Xixia started war, the Liao people stationed troops on the border and threatened the Song Dynasty to cede land, otherwise the army would go south to herd horses... That was the Qingli year, and the Song Dynasty paid a huge price for this... I have been upset about this for many years, but now the situation has reversed. The Liao people and Xixia started war. Will the Song Dynasty sit and watch?"
Old Han is the most domineering person in his heart. If the Song Dynasty had a strong national strength and was invincible, he would probably clamor to crush his past opponents and take back all the humiliations.
Of course, Zhao Shu knew this, and he couldn't stand it at all. However, as an emperor, he had to take the overall situation into consideration, so he endured many things again and again.
But at this moment, the words of Chen An and Han Qi aroused his ambitions.
Chen An checked his expression and immediately made up his sword: "Your Majesty, why did that businessman run away in a hurry? Didn't he just witness the Liao people smashing grass valleys? Such a day is a prosperous era?"
Of course it is not a prosperous era!
Chen An said solemnly: "I have read historical books. In any prosperous era, the people are full of confidence and will not be afraid of foreign races at all!"
During the Han and Tang dynasties, only foreign races feared Han, and were afraid of them to death!
At that time, a few men dared to show their power in foreign lands, which made the foreign races frightened. But in the Song Dynasty, the situation was reversed.
The people of the Song Dynasty were frightened by the Liao army. Is this a prosperous era?
The prosperous era of yarn!
Zhao Shu's breathing tightened a little. As an emperor, his goal was to be a wise ruler.
Only emperors who created prosperous times are qualified to be called wise kings.
So he was moved.
This Song Dynasty had a crazy emperor and a domineering prime minister...
But Chen An thought this was the best combination.
Anxiety and depression are good! You can’t stand it and can’t sleep or eat when you encounter problems. You have to find a way to solve them before you can feel at ease, otherwise you will feel like you are in a slight way and will be extremely difficult to bear.
Can such emperors have existed throughout the ages?
It seems not.
In history, Zhao Shu ascended the throne for a while and died before he could express his ambitions. What if he had been there?
When Zhao Xu asked Wang Anshi to reform, the external environment was not good. Various interest groups were pulling their legs and roaring...
Zhao Xu's prestige is naturally not as good as Zhao Shu. If Zhao Shu had been there, where would this Song Dynasty go?
Look, Zhao Shu is now full of bitterness and revenge, and he is clearly in a state of illness.
It's OK to have an attack!
When Chen An thought about whether to be tough on the outside world in the future, should he think of a way to get Zhao Shu's condition out first...
It's just that I'm not kind, right?
Chen An glanced at Han Qi in a tangled manner.
This prime minister is the worst-tempered person. He is vengeful and arrogant. His best attitude is to be invincible and unforgiving...
Well!
Why do you feel that there are not many good monarchs and ministers in the Song Dynasty?
But when Chen An thought about it, he felt that such a monarch and minister were the foundation of a prosperous era.
Look at the monarchs and ministers at the peak of the Han and Tang dynasties. Whenever they hear the provocation of foreign races, their first reaction is not to imitate Zeng Gongliang like this, but to roar and send troops, and to use the blood of the enemy to clear the humiliation of Han'er.
This is the Han'er!
If they did not kill each other, no matter how powerful the foreign enemies were, they would not be able to defeat them.
This is the iron law proved by countless war examples over the past thousand years. Those capitals stand everywhere, demonstrating the Han'er's bravery.
The train...the big cart runs fast all by the locomotive.
As the front of the Song Dynasty, Zhao Shu has a very good personality!
Han Qi's domineering arrogance is the best choice for the prime minister. As long as the strength of the Song Dynasty continues to grow... Now Han Qi dares to agree with Shen An to send troops to intimidate the Liao people, he may clamor to send troops to the Northern Expedition in the future.
Zeng Gongliang said sadly: "Your Majesty, I'm afraid that Yelu Hongji will get angry in this matter. If he gets angry, he will cease to fight Xixia and then attack the Song Dynasty with all his strength."
This is his concern, you can't say it makes no sense, but it is full of conservative atmosphere.
Zhao Shu suddenly looked up at Liang Jia and said lightly: "Bao Zheng is extremely capable in the Sansi. I guess he will have a balance this year."
This is extremely subtle, but the meaning inside makes Chen An excited.
This year, the Song Dynasty has become rich. If Yelu Hongji dares to talk to me, then he will do anything to him.
Han Qi turned around and glanced at Zeng Gongliang, slanted his body, and bowed to Zhao Shu, "Some people are always as timid as mice, and they are so scared that they tie their hands together. They are worthy of being prime minister? Your Majesty, if Yelu Hongji dares to conquer the country south, I am willing to lead the army and never return."
Damn it!
Han Qi, Han Qi, what he said made Zeng Gongliang unable to come to Taiwan.
It's really domineering!
But Chen An felt extremely comfortable.
The same was true for Zhao Shu. He glanced at Zeng Gongliang and nodded slightly when he saw his expression as usual.
The prime minister must be polite, at least tolerant, otherwise everyone will explode like Han Qi. What else can the emperor do? He has been working on putting out the fire all day long, so how can he still manage state affairs?
He said: "This matter needs to be considered. The Privy Council and the Three Yases will discuss it to see how many soldiers they will be sent, and let Bao Zheng come in too... At least he needs a lot of money and food to send troops. Only with him can he know the truth."
This is a positive signal!
Chen An was happy in his heart, feeling that his plan seemed to coincide with Zhao Shu, and both sides were like lonely men and widows, falling in love at first sight...
Ahem!
Can't think about it anymore.
But Zhao Shu had already seen the expression on his face and couldn't help but sigh, feeling that this young man was really not very cunning. He laughed when he was happy, and angry when he was not happy...
"Chen'an."
"I'm here."
Chen An immediately raised his chest and abdomen, and his tall figure made the group of old bacons in the hall feel ashamed.
Zhao Shu said angrily: "You are all old and young, so you should go to serve tea and water. Good students learn from their steadiness."
This is to let Chen An get involved in this matter, but he found an excuse to serve tea and water.
As expected, the emperor is all experts who tell lies with their eyes open!
The prime ministers complained in their hearts and Chen An bowed with satisfaction: "I have learned tea art recently, but no one appreciates it. I am very sorry. I didn't expect that Your Majesty actually knows it. I... Your Majesty is wise!"
This flattery was extremely bad, but Zhao Shu smiled, which made him extremely helpful.
shameless!
Zeng Gongliang's eyelids twitched.
Later, they dispersed and Chen An followed him to the Political Affairs Hall.
Bao Zheng, Fu Bi, and the commander of the three yamen all came.
As the prime minister, Han Qi was the best candidate for the presidency. He said in a deep voice: "The Liao envoy came to Bianliang to be domineering. Unexpectedly, Yelu Hongji sent troops to threaten the border again. This is a humiliation to the Song Dynasty. This time the north must restrain the Liao people so that they cannot fight with Xixia..."
This is the tone of this trip. After Han Qi said it, he glanced at Chen An, "I know you must be thinking about going, but if you are under my command, remember to abide by the rules and not do anything arbitrary."
Chen An was stunned and thought to himself that Zhao Shu didn't agree to let you go.
However, looking at Han Qi's proud appearance, he clearly felt that he would definitely go to the Northern Parliament this time.
Bao Zheng frowned and looked at Han Qi, saying, "Chen An has never done anything wrong. Besides, if he follows the rules in everything, where will those victory come from?"
Han Qi's face froze, and he realized that he had forgotten Bao Zheng, the old troll.
If Bao Zheng is there, if you want to spray Chen An, you have to be careful, otherwise once Bao Zheng catches the handle, you will wait to be sprayed to collapse.
Chen An refused to abide by the rules of his ancestors when fighting. In his eyes, what formation map is just a paper for wiping his butt. If you ask him to abide by the rules, isn’t this a embarrassing person?
Bao Zheng stood there, looking at Han Qi with bright eyes.
