Chapter 139 - 5

"Come with me and meet you all." Cui Qianzhi said without hesitation and brought Chen Xian to a group of old men.

"This is Lord Yuan Xingzong Yuan, the ruling of Luoyang."

"Okay, I'm afraid of my youth." Yuan Xingzong looked at Chen Xian, and a hint of praise flashed in his eyes. There were more than a dozen envoys who were detained with Cui Qianyi. The young man was kept for the end, which was not only Cui Qianzhi's trust in him, but also his own courage. You must know that when Xia State sent troops to Guandong, Yelu Dashi might execute the two of them at any time to vent his anger. For the Prime Minister's Office, the death of the two envoys was just a signal from the Liao State to Xia State. Of course, the return of the two envoys safely was another meaning...

"Where, where, Lord Yuan has been awarded." Chen Xian was ashamed and bowed his hand to Qian.

He knew that Yuan Xingzong was one of the three important officials in charge of the overall situation of Kanto in Xia State, and was in Luoyang. Without relatives and no reason, this master was a little strange. Sure enough, Yuan Xingzong pondered slightly and asked, "What are the advantages of the situation of the dispute between Kanto and Song and Liao?" Cui Qianzhi recommended Chen Xian. Although Luoyang Order agreed, he still had to take the test before he could use it. Cui Qianzhi looked at Chen Xian with a smile, with a faint sense of encouragement in his eyes.

Although the boy was exhausted and frivolous, his mind and vision were all the best. He was a piece of uncensored jade and gold. He could become a great person after a little thought. In the past few years of living in Shangjing, he also taught Chen Xian a lot of things. However, when he returned to Dunhuang, Chen Xian had no room to perform. It would be better to stay in Luoyang and follow Yuan Xingzong to learn some skills in handling the affairs of prefectures and counties. As the saying goes, the prime minister started from the prefecture department, and Chen Xian returned to the State Guardian to be a civil servant, and he was half-dead to survive...

Chen Xian complained in his heart: "I didn't read the calendar before going out. Why do anyone who sees me today has to take the exam?"

He bowed solemnly: "Sir, I have to ask, the juniors are the only one who can show off their skills." He sorted out his thoughts and slowly said his views on the situation in Kanto. At Duojing Tower, Cui Qianzhi and Yuan Xingzong were the center of everyone's attention. When they took the exam together, the others naturally gathered together to hear what this person has. Under the eyes of countless exams, Chen Xian's pressure became much heavier, but his expression was calm and he talked freely, and he did not show any panic and timidity in the eyes of others.

"Who is this boy?" Korean Duke Li Chan stood in front of the window in the distance and looked at Yuan Xingzong.

"It seems to be the entourage of Cui Guojun," a literati in green robe next to him replied softly, "Chen Xian, whose name is Fazong."

"So it's him." A trace of brilliance flashed in Li Chan's eyes. He stopped talking. After listening for a while, he sighed, "In time, it's a pity to be another thousand-mile horse." The man next to him smiled and said, "The Duke of the State cherishes talents. Do you want to support this kid?"

"Everyone in the world knows that there are horses that are always present, but Bole does not." Li Chan shook his head and said calmly, "Don't you know that the useless use of elephants is to cherish your life because of tooth burning. "He no longer looks at Chen Xian, and looks out on the railing, "You must have the pleasure of life."

Li Chan raised his teacup and took a sip, looking at the scene of the banquet outside the window, with a leisurely look.

Downstairs, there are crowds of tourists and the bustling scene, which almost makes people forget the battle clouds covered in the sky

In Luoyang, although the sun has just set, the sky outside is still bright, and the four walls of the palace are already brightly lit.

"I can't allow this matter!" Zhao Qi said angrily, "Han Ningshuang, a woman, robbed her head, gathered in the mountains and forests, and stole the territory. It would be fine if the court did not send large troops to wipe out her, but she would even be crowned kings. If it spread it out, wouldn't it make people laugh at me as if there was no one in the Song Dynasty!" He became more and more angry as he raised his hand and threw the memorial to the ground. The emperor was furious, and the attendant next to him was so scared that his face was pale, but Deng Su seemed to have no idea. He bent down and picked up the memorial from the ground, dusted the dust, and said slowly, "Since Your Majesty is not allowed today, let's talk about it next time."

"You?!" Zhao Qi stared at Deng Su gloomyly, but couldn't speak.

This memorial that Han Ningshuang, the leader of the Han army, was presented for the third time. The title of the king was the name of the country. Zhao Qi decisively refused the first time. However, the prime minister repeatedly submitted memorials, and there was no word changed. Why didn't Zhao Qi be angry? Deng Su's reason was nothing more than that when the country was using people, the Han army was related to the victory or defeat of the Northern Expedition, and even the gains and losses of Jingdong, Henan. The Emperor of Xia had issued an edict promulgation, promising to break up the land and be crowned with the king if the Han clan attacked Goryeo and Tokyo Road. The Song State had to fight for the Han army's strength, but had to show higher sincerity than Xia State, and now he would be crowned with the Han clan. However, in the direction of the Han army's use of troops, Deng Su coincided with Liu Yi. He did not want Han Ningshuang to expand his power to Hebei and Henan, but hoped that the Han army would cross the sea to attack Tokyo Road.

After the Prime Minister stepped back, Zhao Qiyu was still angry and reached out to grab the teacup and wanted to smash it out, but finally put it down again.

The lights are bright and dazzling.

Empress Cao had begged many times to ask Cao Di to lead the troops to the north, but Deng Su never let go.

Although Lu Yunsun was loyal to the government, the power of the court was in the hands of Deng Su. It would be impossible to do something he disagreed with. Today, Zhao Qi originally wanted to discuss with him again, even if Yue Fei was the commander and Cao Di was the commander. Unexpectedly, because of the Han Dynasty's title of king, Zhao Qi could not control his anger and could not lower his face to discuss with Deng Su. Thinking of this, Zhao Qi couldn't help feeling powerless from the bottom of his heart. Although Deng Su was respectful on the surface, he was not soft and hard inside. In a short time, he had many gangs in the court. Although Zhao Qi's life in the palace was a little better, his influence in the government was almost not much different from when Chen Dong was in power. All the officials of the court discussed affairs in the prime minister's office, and Deng Su went to the palace to pay homage to His Majesty once a day.

"The great treacherous Ruozhong, is it the great treacherous Ruozhong?" Zhao Qi murmured, gently stroked his head, and blue veins appeared on his forehead.

Deng Su left the palace and handed the memorial in her sleeve to the entourage clerk.

He got into the sedan chair by himself and said in a deep voice: "Linjiangmen Wharf." He then closed his eyes and calmed down.

The pirates in the south have been leveled, and there is no worries about the Northern Expedition. Deng Suyuan wanted to ask Chen Dong to make a comeback for the Guangnan matter. It seems that there is no need now, and he has no intention of forcing Chen Dong to stay. Chen Dong left Ezhou and sent him or not to send him away. Chen Dong was unwilling to give him the problems of officials and gentry in Ezhou. He informed Deng Su and a few friends. Tonight, he went east to the Yangtze River, then walked on the sea route, and returned to his hometown in Quanzhou.

"Prince, the pier has arrived." Deng Su opened her eyes, and the mist in her eyes turned clear.

The imperial guards were all staying a little far away. The sedan chair was parked in front of the trest. A servant in a green hat carried a lantern in front of the guide. Deng Su boarded the black-sailed boat along the boat board. A small ebony table was set up on the deck. Chen Dong sat at the table and looked up and said, "Come?" He reached out to ask Deng Su to sit down, without any surprise, as if he had been waiting for him.

"Why can't you come and see me off?" Deng Su sighed, sat opposite Chen Dong, and reached out to pick up the cup.

The thin crescent moon hung like a carved bow on the sky above the East Mountain. On the surface of the river, everything was silent. The two drank a drink.

"Shaoyang, take care of yourself all the way." Deng Su put down his wine glass and his tone changed, "How about the plan of the Northern Expedition? Guangnan will issue 10,000 elite troops?"

"When sending troops, my husband goes to the prefect to find the prefect Xuezheng," Chen Dong sneered, "Chen is a scattered person in the world. If there is room for comment, wouldn't it be a mess of the rules of the court?" He lowered his eyes and looked at the wine in the cup. A waning moon was shaking and shaking, and it was just a mess. In Guangzhou, the Guangnan Road Group Training fought with the pirates for dozens of days. People at that time all said that the world's group training was the first in Henan Road and the second in Guangnan Road. Deng Su had already informed the Guangzhou Prefect Chen Gongju, hoping to select an elite force from the regiment training he participated in the battle in Guangzhou, and go north to help, setting an example for the prefectures and counties in the world. Chen Gongju learned about it with Chen Dong the day before yesterday.

"Don't lie in front of the Ming people." Deng Su said seriously and picked up the wine glass, "This cup, I wish you and Yuan Zhi were not worried about past grudges, put state affairs first, cut off the pirates in the southeast, and the future troubles of the Northern Expedition." In the Guangzhou battle, Zhao Xingde and Chen Gongju cooperated perfectly, and they could be said to be entrusted with life and death. Such cooperation was impossible without Chen Dong's guarantee. However, if Chen Dong denied it, Deng Su naturally could not prove it, but he was just unbelievable and disappointed. He held the wine glass and looked at Chen Dong only.

Chen Dong was silent for a moment and picked up the Yue porcelain cup.

The two cups clinked each other, and a crisp "ding" sound, which was particularly clear in the silence. The wine slightest ripples, and both of them drank it all in one go.

"I respect," Chen Dong sighed, his face dark, "the heroic soul who died for the country."

Although the Guangzhou Battle was a great victory, there were tens of thousands of people who died in Guangnan, and hundreds of children from the management community died on the battlefield. In Guangzhou, it can be said that every family wears mourning and mourning, and it is difficult to recover their vitality in the short term. When Mr. Chen reported on the request for sending troops, he specifically mentioned this point. Guangnan really couldn't afford to be injured. When Chen Dongchu saw the number of people who died in the battle, he thought he had written it wrong. Many of these young people still remembered their names and appearances, and even the death of his disciples he valued, which made him feel like he broke his hands and feet and hurt his heart and lungs.

Deng Su also fell silent, the moon shadow shone in the middle of the river, and the breeze brought the cicadas on the river bank.

"I know the slander and discussion outside the outside world is like a tide of slander, but" the moon shadow in the wine glass shook slightly, Deng Su's eyes shone with a certain firmness, and he said slowly, "You also know that every day, countless people in Hebei die in the enslavement of the Khitans. If possible, I would rather go to the Northern Expedition today. Moreover, the Song Dynasty is in the only opportunity to revive the old border. Xia Kingdom was trapped in the battle with the Roma Turks in the west, and it is difficult to launch a large-scale military force in the east. We want to recover Hebei and face it.

The enemy is only one Liao Kingdom. If you can't clean up the old rivers and mountains in the past few years, if you wait for the west side of Xia Kingdom, then "He was silent for a while and suddenly said in a bitter voice, "In the wounded land of Henan, with strong enemies on both sides invading, we will not only not be able to recover Hebei, but whether Henan and Jingdong can be protected will be a problem. It is difficult to say whether Jiangbei is lost, Jiangnan and Guangnan can be protected. Otherwise, I will lose all the game. I can only bet on the northern expedition."
