King of Song

Chapter 631

Yu Xuanneng sent himself a message in a hurry, which proved that something big had happened.

Zhao Zhao hurriedly took a look, and his expression suddenly became serious.

"Zizhan, I'm afraid I have to go back to Chang'an immediately!"

"Forgive me for taking the liberty to ask Your Highness, what happened? Can I help you?" Su Shi asked cautiously. As long as Wang Chaoyun's life-long event is confirmed, the relationship between his family and the King of Qin will naturally be extraordinary.

Zhao Zhao said with a smile: "Your birthday is coming, maybe you really need to treat me well!"

"Who?"

"Zhang Zihou, you've arrived in Chang'an!"

"Zhang Dun?" Su Shi asked in surprise, "Isn't he going to explore Huguang to appease the tribes in the southwest? Why did he suddenly come to Chang'an?"

"In the past, I used to explore Huguang, but I'm afraid I will explore the northwest in the future..." Zhao Zhao only glanced at the report, and it was written clearly.Emperor Zhao Xu believed that Zhang Dun had the ability and experience to appease the frontier tribes.Now that the Great Song Dynasty is expanding its territory in the northwest, it has absorbed many Tibetans, Dangxiang people and Qiang people, and it is just in need of such talents to come to appease.

Therefore, Zhang Dun was sent to assist the King of Qin, appease the Qiang people in the northwest, and speed up their naturalization.Zhao Zhao knew in his heart that Zhang Dun did have this ability, but did he really need to come?At least the necessity is not that high.Zhao Xu sent him here, and it was definitely not to appease the Qiang people, it was to nail himself!

With Wang Shao gone, almost all the land in the northwest is under his control.Zhao Xu was naturally unwilling, he definitely wanted to place his people in the northwest.But this needs an excuse. The officials in the Northwest are not good enough and dare not easily transfer them.If Guo Kui's 15 Imperial Guards from the Beijing Battalion did not return to Bianjing for a day, Zhao Xu was afraid to act rashly.

Therefore, this method can only be used to place his people.It may not be possible to cultivate a strong force and cause trouble and obstacles to oneself, but it is enough to inquire about the news.

At present, there is no shame, even if he is the emperor's uncle, after all, there are differences between monarchs and ministers, there is no reason to refuse, and there is no way to refuse.

Zhao Xu has already made a move to himself!

"Zizhan, I have to go back to Chang'an as soon as possible!" Zhao Zhao said in a deep voice, "Since Zhang Zihou wants to appease the Qiang people, Fengxiang is not far from Qinzhou, where there are many Qiang people, and you are the same age as him. Come to Chang'an later! You will receive him, and I will keep an eye on him. You should know what to do, right?"

"Yes! I know!"

Zhao Zhaodao: "You don't have to worry, you can wait a day or two and bring Chaoyun with you when you come, the palace by the Qujiang Pool lacks a mistress!"

This sentence is tantamount to confirming Wang Chaoyun's identity. From now on, she is a serious Qin Wangfei, but at most she is just a side concubine.But Wang Chaoyun didn't care at all, as long as she could be with her big brother, she would do anything.

Today's Wang Chaoyun is no longer the innocent little girl she used to be, she is very clear about the affairs between men and women.She also knew that the eldest brother already had several wives in his family, but she didn't care at all.When she was in Bianjing, she didn't know how much she envied the wives of the palace.Especially when she saw Gu Yuelun's elder sister marrying her eldest brother, she felt envious, not to mention how envious she was, she just thought about it at the time.It would be great if it was me under the big red hijab!
Now the dream has finally come true!
For a moment, Wang Chaoyun was very excited.However, the woman was naturally shy, with a pretty face flushed, she quietly turned around and ran away quickly.

Su Shi smiled and said: "Chaoyun is young, so he is inevitably shy. In fact, he is very happy in his heart. I hope His Highness will forgive me."

"This king just likes her being so pure and lovely!" Zhao Zhao said with a smile: "But you also know that the current situation of this king, Chaoyun enters the mansion, and the initial status may not be too high. I hope you and your wife can tell She, lest Chaoyun feel wronged."

"Yes, rest assured, Your Highness, Chaoyun is very sensible, and she will understand!" Su Shi knew very well that the current status of the palace may be the status of the emperor's harem in the future. After all, Wang Chaoyun is still young, and his background is not high. The status of the palace will not be very high, and it cannot be compared with the other princesses.

But this is just the beginning. If Wang Chaoyun can give birth to a boy and a half girl in the future, his status will definitely be greatly improved.In fact, King Qin was also hinting to himself that Wang Chaoyun's status was closely related to the Su family.If the Su brothers can make great contributions, then Wang Chaoyun's status will be greatly improved.Complementing each other is also of great benefit to the status and interests of the Su family.

"Okay, I'm leaving first, don't forget what I told you!"

"Don't worry, Your Highness, I will definitely do it well and live up to expectations!" Now that the relationship between the Su family and the King of Qin is so close, since they have decided to serve the King of Qin, they must go all out so that the King of Qin can take a look at Su Zizhan. means.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Zhang Dun did come to Chang'an with a mission.

The first one is to deliver the decree to the King of Qin. Since the Taimiao sacrifice day, it was the Xixia people who assassinated the King of Qin and the Taihuang and the concubine; , then we have to crusade against the Xixia people.

Yu Gong, the mausoleum of the Taizu was set on fire by the Xixia people. Could it be that the Song Dynasty ignored it?In private, the people of Xixia blatantly assassinated Qin Wang's mother and son, could His Highness Qin Wang swallow this breath?Don't take revenge and seek justice?What's more, the Xixia people have already taken the initiative to attack and harass the Song Dynasty.

How could the Great Song Dynasty just sit back and wait for death without hearing or saying hello?A counterattack is inevitable. King Qin has been in Chang'an for a month.It should be busy enough to check the armament and defense status of various places.If there is no more troops, I'm afraid it will be difficult to explain.

Otherwise, it would be a joke for the Xixia people to bear these scapegoats, and the Song Dynasty would lose face, so they must send troops as soon as possible.When Zhang Dun came here, he brought the emperor Zhao Xu's imperial decree, which was equivalent to an ultimatum to Zhao Zhao.

The reason why Zhao Xu was so anxious to urge Zhao Zhao to go to war against Xixia was actually because he listened to what Gao Taotao said that day.Only by getting Zhao Zhao and Xi Xia entangled together can he take advantage of it.

Zhao Xu received the instruction and impatiently put it into practice.Making trouble for Zhao Zhao is only one aspect. As long as there is a war with Xixia, the Western Army will temporarily have no troops to mobilize, and Bianjing, which is empty of troops, will be safe for the time being.

Because of this, Zhao Xu was very disturbed, and hadn't slept well for a long time.

As for the second mission, it is to appease the Qiang people who belonged to Xihe and Heng/Shan.Such an errand fell on me precisely because of my successful experience in the Huguang area in the past few years.He has the real ability to make the tribes in the 45 southwest states stable.Naturally, it is also possible to draw gourds in the same way and use them on Qiang people.

In fact, Zhang Dun was unwilling to come to the northwest.According to the original idea, when he returned to Bianjing this time, it happened that Wang Anshi also came back.He wanted to devote himself to the political reform, but the emperor had assigned him such a task. Not long after he arrived in Bianjing, he rushed to the northwest without stopping.

That's all, the sacred order is hard to disobey, and those who are ministers should act according to the order.Zhang Dun also knew that since he came to the northwest, and there was such a special existence as King Qin, it might be difficult to handle the errand.

But Zhao Xu sent him a mission to appease the Qiang people and strengthen Song's control in the northwest.In fact, it is to inquire about news, if you can take the opportunity to cultivate your own power in the northwest, divide and disintegrate King Qin's power...

That's what happened!
Zhang Dun didn't know what to say!Although he is not as selfless as Wang Anshi, he is not willing to easily intervene in the vortex of the battle for the throne, especially when the current situation is still unclear.

Zhang Dun is not stupid, and his ability to deal with many tribes in the southwest proves that this person has a lot of eyes and a clear mind. He is on the sidelines like most of them.

I want to choose an appropriate time to make a decision when the situation is a little clearer.But isn't it embarrassing for the government to assign such a task now?
In the northwest, is that King Qin's territory?Openly confronting King Qin, even if there are officials behind him, he will not get good results.After all, the mountains are high and the emperor is far away, and the official family is still in Bianjing, so it can be said that it is beyond the reach of the northwest.This is also the reason why the so-called strong dragon does not overwhelm the local snake.

The king of Qin is the head snake in the northwest, and now he is also known as legitimately controlling the military and government in the northwest.Thinking about being in the northwest, King Qin's words are definitely more effective than the imperial decree of the government.

Since he came, King Qin would not wait to see him.The officials in the west will definitely not cooperate. It can be said that they are in a difficult situation and life will definitely be very difficult.

It doesn't matter if you don't have political achievements, you just get embarrassed, it doesn't matter.But what should I do if I can't complete the task assigned by the official?Zhang Dun felt that this matter must be very difficult.

Both the official family and King Qin are members of the royal family, uncles and nephews, they are fighting for the throne, and the people caught between them are the worst.The so-called fighting between gods is probably the same as mortal suffering.

At that time, there must be two faces, and the most fearful thing is that if King Qin wins in the end.Then I am afraid that I will have the disaster of ransacking my family and exterminating my family, this matter is really troublesome.

Zhang Dun was very helpless, under Zhao Xu's urging, despite all kinds of dissatisfaction in his heart.I had no choice but to embark on the road to the west, and came to Chang'an from Bianjing with anxiety.

When I arrived at Chang'an City, I found out that the King of Qin was not there. It is said that he went to inspect the government affairs and military defense of various places, and he is now in Fengxiang.Because of the emperor's edict, Shi Yuxuan, the head of Qin Wangfu, did not dare to neglect. While asking Zhang Dun to rest, he sent someone to Fengxiang to inform Qin Wang to come back as soon as possible.

In Chang'an, Shi Yuxuan, the head of Qin Wangfu, treated Zhang Dun very kindly, and he did not dare to neglect him at all, and provided him with delicious food and drink.Zhang Dun didn't care about this. After hearing the news that King Qin was in Fengxiang, his thoughts drifted far away.He knew that Su Shi, a Jinshi of the same discipline in the second year of Jiayou, was an official there.

I heard that Su Shi and the King of Qin have a very good relationship, but what is the specific situation?Zhang Dun was thinking, should he go to Fengxiang to meet Su Shi before going to Xihe to appease the Qiang people?In Northwest, if there is a Tongnian to take care of, maybe things will be easier.

Zhang Dun was meditating when someone came to report: "King Qin has returned to Chang'an!"
