I rebelled in the Song Dynasty

Chapter 88 Imperial Envoy

Yu Hui neither accepted Liu Sheng's gold hairpin nor agreed to Liu Sheng's offer.

Just tell Liu Sheng to wait until he returns from the expedition.

This made Liu Sheng feel a little overwhelmed, and he was full of anxiety. What was just a sentence had to be made so troublesome.

Liu Sheng went to Mayi depressedly, and everyone gathered in Mayi.

As soon as Liu Sheng arrived in Mayi, Zhong Shidao also came with Wang Fu as the imperial envoy.

Liu Sheng didn't know how they reached an agreement in the court.

Xian Wo sat on the recliner with his legs crossed and threw the imperial edict of the reward aside.

"Little general, the officials really didn't know that the young general had suffered such a great humiliation. After I reported it to the officials, they investigated and punished six or seven senior officials. Even Cai Xianggong was reinstated and even wrote a letter of repentance himself. I hand it over to the general."

"In all the past dynasties, apart from the imperial edicts to punish oneself, has the emperor ever written a letter of repentance to his ministers? It can be seen that the officials were really deceived."

Liu Sheng is not a fool. Why was he deceived? Why are all the people in the Song Dynasty’s court a fool?

Was the emperor really deceived? There is a saying that what is good at the top will be bad at the bottom.

How could someone the emperor didn't like appear in the center?

As long as there is a problem, the treacherous officials are in charge, and if they achieve political achievements, they are the emperor's sage.

Why do Qin Hui and Yue Fei have any grudges? Why do they have to risk the world to kill Yue Fei? Without the emperor's nod, he dared?

Zhong Shidao was still admonishing from the side: "Little general, you are not in the court, and you don't understand the hardships of the officials. All memorials must be read by the central prime ministers before they can be submitted to the officials, and the officials can see them. Whatever, it all depends on the group of central prime ministers.

The treacherous ministers are powerful, and the officials sometimes have no choice but to give in and wrong the young generals. You have to understand the difficulties of the officials! "

This court is not what the general thought, it is the official hall. Now the official has learned about the general, asked us to check it, and even wrote a letter of repentance in my own hand. General, you might as well take a look. "

Liu Sheng took Zhao Ji's so-called confession letter, but he was not in a hurry to open it. He could roughly guess the contents inside.

It's nothing more than being blinded by the minister, not knowing Liu Sheng's grievances, and giving him some false reputation.

But Liu Sheng clearly understood that the group of scholar-bureaucrats and the emperor had already given their answers. Now they just saw the gunpowder and wanted to obtain the gunpowder formula, so they raised the stakes.

He just said lightly: "Old general, we worked hard for the Song Dynasty, but now we don't have enough food and armor, and we don't have enough armor. Are the officials just trying to fool us with a bunch of useless titles?"

The prince on the side hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Don't be anxious, young general, just listen to me." He betrayed his old boss completely, "It's all Mr. Cai. He asked me to subdue the general so that he can prepare for his Northern Expedition next year." , strive for more say, and the materials that were taken away from him will be sent to Shuozhou in the near future. If you have any other requests, general, please feel free to ask."

Liu Sheng stood up and raised his hands to Master Zhongdao and said, "Since the officials are generous with rewards, we generals can only serve the officials with our lives.

The official family is willing to forgive us, but in fact I am not willing to betray the official family. It’s just that Cai Jing bullied others too much. Many of my sons are working hard outside, but they don’t get the rewards they deserve. I made such a decision out of urgency. I hope the old general will, Wait in front of the official for me and say a few words. "

The official's handwritten letter of repentance made us deeply saddened and unable to retaliate. Doesn't the official just want the Sixteenth State of Yanyun? Now that the New Year is approaching, although our army is a defeated army, it has decided to capture Yingzhou for the officials and give it as a gift to the officials. "

"This..." Zhong Shidao said hesitantly, "Little general, soldiers are the most important weapon of the country and should not be used lightly. Why not wait until next year when Tong Shuai goes on the Northern Expedition and the general will be there to support him?"

"It doesn't matter, as long as the official reward is in place, we will fight against the sword and the fire."

Zhong Shidao also wanted to give some advice but was pulled aside by the palace and said: "I don't know, little general. What was the sharp weapon used outside Wuguan last time? Does the general want to use this to attack Yingzhou? Can you let us appreciate it?"

Liu Sheng was secretly amused. Finally, Tu Qiongdiao saw it and said with a troubled expression: "It was developed by a craftsman. It is a mystery that has not been passed down in his family. Now that craftsman is dead, there is no one in Shuozhou now."

Wang Fu said sadly: "How can such a magical weapon be eliminated from the world?"

Zhong Shidao looked worried and said: "How will the general conquer Yingzhou? Can you ask me to help you?"

Liu Sheng refused: "This is a gift from me to the official family, how can I give it to others?"

Liu Sheng looked at the palace and said, "Tell the officials that Yingzhou will get it for them."

"Okay, I'll go with the general."

Liu Sheng looked at Wang Fu and said: "My loyalty to the official family has been proven by the sun and the moon. I still don't need Mr. Wang's supervisory army."

What else does Wang Fu want to say? But he was pulled away by Zhong Shidao.

Liu Sheng looked at the backs of the two and said, "I trust the official family, but I hope the official family will live up to me.

If we don't have the supplies we should have, I will lead my army to find the officials in the early spring of next year and get back what I deserve. "

......

Watching the two people leaving, Liu Sheng sneered. He didn't even have the desire to open the letter of repentance and the imperial edict, and just threw it into the brazier and lit it.

Do you really think he is a peasant officer who knows nothing and is born and raised with some luck?

It can deceive some ignorant people but not him.

After the two left, Mi Xing walked in and said excitedly: "General, what did the imperial minister say when he came over?"

Liu Sheng looked at Mi Xing and said, "The officials were very happy to hear that there was someone so heartfelt for him thousands of miles away, so they asked me to be castrated and sent to the palace to accompany him."

Mi Xing shivered and stood at attention and said: "General, we are all ready. Battalion Commander Liang's cavalry battalion has set off first. We want to trick the Khitans into sneaking into the city by pretending to be a convoy transporting food."

Liu Sheng stood at the top of the city and looked at the increasingly heavy snow and sighed: "If we go on an expedition in this kind of weather, we will either suffer a big defeat or a big victory. I hope it will be the latter."

Then he looked at Mi Xing and said: "Send the news to Hu Xing and ask him to spread rumors within the Khitan, saying that Emperor Tianzuo is incompetent and that the clan is planning to choose another wise man to be the emperor."

......

Marching in this kind of snowy weather is also very challenging.

There is no distinction between humans and animals one meter away. Everyone is tied together with a rope, one by one. As long as they let go, they will be completely lost in the blizzard.

With such heavy snow, Liu Sheng was not prepared and would not set off. Unexpectedly, he was disturbed by the imperial envoy from the Song Dynasty, and Liang Shouyi had already led his army to set off.

There was no way that if Liu Sheng did not send troops at this moment, Liang Shouyi's two thousand cavalry would either get lost in the heavy snow or be directly eaten by the Khitans. No matter which outcome, Liu Sheng could not accept it and gritted his teeth. Moving forward through the blizzard.

Especially carrying more than a dozen giant cannons made the journey unimaginably difficult.
