Come to Song Dynasty with the system
Chapter 661 The world is hot and cold
Li Kesheng originally wanted to persuade Feng Chunxue to surrender, but he was greeted with scolding again and again.After a long time, he also lost his patience, so he directly handed it over to Zhao Yunrang, asking him to bring it back to Bianliang for military merit.
But what everyone didn't know was that just less than three hundred miles away from here, Lu Siqiao was also secretly escorted into Beijing by the Liao army.
In order to prevent any accidents on the way, Zhang Jian adopted the method of fiction and reality. A total of nearly six identical teams left the capital of Liao Kingdom and secretly went to Bianliang City.
Yelu Hongji, King of Yanzhao, was in charge of this matter, and Zhang Jian personally arranged it, even Su Shi's internal counterpart, Mei Yang, was totally unaware of it.
Lu Siqiao, who was tied up heavily, was stuffed into a tightly packed carriage, bumping all the way to Bianliang.
Bianliang City.
Su Shi really knew the world's affairs without leaving home.
With the existence of the walkie-talkie, the major events happening outside can be heard by the ears.Su Shi knew some news a few days earlier than Renzong Zhao Zhen.
When the news of Zhao Yunrang's negotiations with Li Kesheng came, Su Shi analyzed and learned that Lu Siqiao might be in danger.
After Zhou Jun disappeared, Lu Siqiao lost the meaning of staying in Shangjing.The Liao people didn't want to offend themselves because of a woman, so most of them would give full play to their final value and send her to Bianliang.
At this time, whether it is the Liao Kingdom or the Song Kingdom, they are still in their prime.
What is Zhongsheng refers to non-peak prosperity, but it has not completely declined.To use an analogy, it is like the half of a mountain, neither high nor low.
Of course, with the passage of time, both Song and Liao will decline and will eventually be replaced by new dynasties.But at this time, they all have some abilities. There are wise ministers who can make up their minds and generals who can fight. Naturally, the two sides have placed spies among each other.
Like the news that he was under house arrest in the mansion, Su Shi believed that the senior officials of the Liao Kingdom must know about it, and there are still people who pay attention.
Su Shi has never been arrogant, but he also has a certain understanding of his own influence.Get rid of yourself, this must be something that some people in the Liao Kingdom are very willing to see.
Presumably one of them must want to add fuel to the fire.
After sighing in his heart, Su Shi picked up the walkie-talkie and sent out the Flying Eagle Brigade again, asking them to try to find the team that came to Bianliang from Liao Kingdom. Lu Siqiao should probably be among them.
The order was issued, but Su Shi didn't hold out much hope.Without it, the border area between the two countries is really too big, so big that the Flying Eagle Brigade with only a few hundred people can investigate it all.
Su Shi also had to prepare for the worst.
"Don't force me." Lifting his head, Su Shi's eyes fell towards the direction of the palace, with an incomparably profound expression.
......
Royal Palace.
Yanfu Palace.
Empress Cao was listening to her maid Fan Ying talking about some new things that happened in Bianliang City.
Here I would like to say that the relationship between Empress Cao and her niece Gao Taotao has long since ceased to be as harmonious as it used to be because of the appearance of Su Shi.
Both women attach great importance to Su Shi.
But one wanted to collect it for his own use, while the other wanted to kill it directly to avoid future troubles.
Empress Cao's attitude of wanting to subdue Su Shi for her own use also aroused Zhao Yunrang's displeasure.
The originally stable alliance has also caused some rifts.
This made Empress Cao not trust Gao Taotao that much, and Fan Ying also took advantage of this opportunity to become the empress' first confidant.
Fan Ying opened her mouth and talked there, and unconsciously talked about Tianyou Hutong.
"Mother, it's strange to say that Marquis Wuji has been closed for more than three months, but no one has ever seen anyone come out to buy. Do you think these people don't need to eat and drink?"
When talking about this matter, Fan Ying was really full of doubts.In fact, not only her, but many people were puzzled.For this, there is anything to say.
It is more reliable to say that enough food has been prepared in Tianyou Hutong, which is why it is possible to persist for such a long time without no one going out.
According to guesswork, there must be a passage connecting with the outside world in Tianyou Hutong, and food is entered through the passage.Because of this, many people searched for secret passages outside Tianyou Hutong, but they found nothing.
It's absurd to say that Su Shi came down from the stars in the world and can conjure food.
In order to prove this statement, some people gave evidence that Su Shi sent troops to Liao when he was still Tong Zhilang, and no one had ever seen him worry about food.
Although there is this example, few people believe it.
Ghosts and gods are only in legends, only in everyone's imagination, how could they exist in reality?
But no matter what it is said, it is also true that the gate of Tianyou Hutong has not been opened for more than three months, which also makes some people who want to take the opportunity to find Su Shi's troubles unable to find any clues.
If the Su family's army doesn't come out, how can you wrong them, how can you set up traps for them to drill?
Fan Ying talked about Tianyou Hutong, and Empress Cao also became interested, "Has the mansion been closed for more than three months?"
"Yes, empress, it will be April in ten days." Fan Ying remembered the date.This is mainly because there are people in Bianliang City betting on when Tianyou Hutong will open.And I heard that the bet is not small.
"Oh, is it going to be four months? This Su Tianyou is really a person who can bear it. But at a young age, he should also be able to bear it." It seems to be for Fan Ying, but it seems to be I'm talking to myself.
After a while, Empress Cao seemed to have made some kind of decision, she suddenly looked at Fan Ying and said, "I have given you a task, go to Tianyou Hutong, and have a good talk with that Marquis Wuji."
"Ah! Are you going to talk about it?" Fan Ying was both surprised and excited.
Surprised that such a big thing should be entrusted to myself.
Excitedly, she finally got the approval of Empress Cao, and she was going to rely on herself as her confidant.
"Yes, you are the one to go. I will find an opportunity to tell the officials that you can come in generously at that time. As for what you want to talk about, just listen to it."
Empress Cao thought that the time had come to win over Su Shi.
When a person is in a trough, what he wants to do the most is that someone may stand up and give him a hand.
This is what people call sending charcoal in a timely manner.
Empress Cao wanted to be the one who sent charcoal, and she wanted to take the opportunity to expand her strength and influence.And as long as she can subdue Su Shi for her own use, at that time, she would like to see, will Zhao Yunrang and Gao Taotao still be her opponents?
As for the recent matter of Gao Taotao's close relationship with Zhao Yunrang, how could it escape her eyes.She didn't say it didn't mean she didn't know, she just thought the timing wasn't right.
Su Shi is the bargaining chip for Empress Cao to come back.
In Empress Cao's eyes, Su Shi is now abandoned by everyone, and only she can save him. In this regard, as long as Su Shi is a smart person, he should know how to choose.
As Empress Cao said, Su Shi has indeed become a loner now.
Since Tianyou Hutong was closed, no one has mentioned him in the court.
No one has spoken for Su Shi in public.
Even King Jing Zhao Xi chose to keep silent, so what else can others say?
Zhou Shushan, Tang Ke, Hua An and others were all recommended by Su Shi to King Jing's side. They really wanted to do something, but they kept their words light and dared not stand out.
The Li family, the Cao family, the Miao family, and the Pang family that are in business cooperation now all have the goods that Su Shi provided before.Although there are not many left, unless there is really nothing left, otherwise, they will not easily stand up and speak out.
It is rare for officials and future officials to maintain the same attitude on one matter, who dares to find trouble for nothing?
Perhaps, when the goods are really sold out, they will stand up.It's just that Su Shi won't give them this chance.
Su Shi had already informed Yuan Xiaotou who was away to continue providing goods to these families, all he wanted was for them not to stand up and speak for him.
Su Shi, who has already made a major decision, does not want to owe favors to anyone.What he wants is what everyone owes him. Only in this way, he will not have any psychological burden when he starts to do things in the future.
People's hearts are often like this and are not worth testing.
Of course, it's not that there is no one who speaks for Su Shi, and there is really one person who stands up, and he is Fu Bi who has been appointed as a political adviser.
Fu Bi is a very assertive person.
The more such a person, under normal circumstances, will not easily convince another person.
But once he is convinced, he will not change it easily.
Besides, regardless of whether Fu Bicheng admits it or not, the fact that he was able to change from a deputy privy envoy to a political adviser, and from the military to political reform was all because of Su Shi's great efforts.
With this one, he can't just ignore it.In this way, when Su Shi had just had an accident, he was on the paper, but it was a pity that Zhao Zhen did not give any reply. On the contrary, not long ago, he was assigned to the southern land of the Song Dynasty, nominally to inspect the government affairs of the southern land. three years.
He was given the position of patrol envoy of the Southern Lands, but what is puzzling is that Xu Fubi's family moved out of Bianliang City.
This move made Fu Bi understand that it was Zhao Zhen's intention to throw himself out, and he just didn't want him to speak again on Su Shi's matter.
The Great Song Dynasty was a very strange dynasty, not to mention emphasizing literature and suppressing martial arts, and the rank of officials is often not necessarily judged by rank.One of them is that the Beijing official is the biggest.
All the courtiers believed that if they stayed in Bianliang City, they would have more chances to get promoted.In this way, even if there is a chance to be released to the outside world, and you can be promoted to a rank, usually no one wants to go.
And whenever a courtier is released from outside Bianliang City to be an official, unless it is promoted several levels in a row, it will be regarded as a promotion.Even being promoted to a higher level is considered derogatory.
Although Fu Bi's official position of participating in political affairs has not been dismissed, but he has gone to the South and is not in Bianliang City, so how can he participate in government affairs?
In ancient times, transportation was very underdeveloped, people were out of town, and some things happened, and by the time you got the news, it was already a long time later.Without timeliness, how can we talk about participating in politics?
Not to mention, the emperor also allowed the rich family to move out of Bianliang City, which sent out a bad signal, and anyone with a discerning eye could see it. In exile.
But what everyone didn't know was that just less than three hundred miles away from here, Lu Siqiao was also secretly escorted into Beijing by the Liao army.
In order to prevent any accidents on the way, Zhang Jian adopted the method of fiction and reality. A total of nearly six identical teams left the capital of Liao Kingdom and secretly went to Bianliang City.
