The Glorious Summoner

"As the minister of court rites, Master Su was so resistant to this time the Korean envoys came to me to pay tribute to the Song Dynasty. In my opinion, this is a rare opportunity for the Song Dynasty. The Korean messenger also brought birthday gifts to the Queen Mother, but Mrs. Su arbitrarily obstructed him and imposed restrictions on the Korean messengers everywhere. I don't know why?"

As soon as Xia Ping'an entered the hall and had just met with Song Shenzong, a pair of eyes were quietly looking at Song Shenzong's appearance, then Dong Dunyi immediately fired Xia Ping'an with a breath of gunpowder.

"I heard that the messenger from Goryeo had already omitted the letter to Shangshu, and wanted to buy many books printed by my Dasong Guozi Supervisor. The messenger from Goryeo also wanted to read our books such as "Taiping Yulan" and "Cefu Yuangui". Already agreed?" Xia Pingan looked at Dong Dunyi and asked in a calm tone. (Note 1)

In all fairness, Dong Dunyi and his like are actually not treacherous ministers. They are just pedantic and ignorant. They take it for granted. If Dong Dunyi knew that in a thousand years, the descendants of the Koreans would be able to stolen the culture learned from China. When the achievements of civilization are said to be invented by them, the faces of Dong Dunyi and his like must be very wonderful!

Even at this time, the Goryeo sticks were not at ease. On the surface, they were messengers, and they wanted to fix up with the Song Dynasty, but they were in fact convinced by the Liao State. The Goryeo messengers were ordered by the Liao State to spy on the reality of the Song Dynasty.

"Haha, Master Su’s news is well-informed, yes, the Korean messenger has already sent a letter to Shang Shushen, wanting to buy many books printed by our Guozijian periodical, and at the same time want to read books such as "Taiping Yulan" and "Cefu Yuangui". I think this is the reason why Korea admires the prosperity of the Song Dynasty, and desires it..." Dong Dunyi looked triumphant, "My Song Dynasty just used this to show the kingly and gentle strategy, win over Korea, and fight against the Liao Dynasty. Why not? "

"I heard that Master Dong also took in two concubines a few days ago. Master Dong wants to treat Korea so much, why not send his wife concubines to those Koreans?"

Song Shenzong and Dong Dunyi probably never thought that Su Shi would say such a thing. Song Shenzong's face was almost uncontrollable, but he was still strained and did not laugh. After a moment of dumbfoundedness, Dong Dunyi's face turned red. , Pointing to Xia Ping’an, "You...you...you Su Shi is an official book of the Ministry of Etiquette anyway, how can...how can you be so insulting in front of officials!"

"Huairou Goryeo? Dong Dunyi, you are an immortal, an old tortoise who has a son without an asshole. You can't tell the truth at all. You want to sell the books to the Koreans, let us Song "Taiping Yulan" and "Cefu Yuangui" are given to those Koreans. I think your tortoise son is a tortoise climbing the threshold. Sooner or later he will have to turn somersault..." Xia Ping'an directly pointed to Dong Dunyi’s nose with an accent in Shu. Got up, "I'm scolding you now, why don't you come to Huairou and I will try..."

Dong Dunyi's head was dumbfounded, and he was dumbfounded by Xia Pingan's fast and anxious series of Shu dialects. His whole body was shivering with anger, and his face flushed. He saluted Song Shenzong directly and stammered, " The official...please treat...the crime of insulting the minister... before Su Shi's misconduct!"

Song Shenzong was also a little dazed. Su Shi was a great Song writer, an idol in the eyes of the people below. Su Shi's words are usually literal. At a glance, Song Shenzong is a little annoyed to listen to Song Shenzong. Song Shenzong dislikes it. Where can Song Shenzong get from Su Shi Hearing these hot words from the market, I felt that Su Shi in front of me was extraordinarily novel, not as old-fashioned as he was in the past, and was a little stunned for a while.

"Ahem...Su Shi, how can you be so rude?" Song Shenzong reprimanded.

Xia Ping’an gave a salute to Song Shenzong, and then said with a serious face, “Please atone for the officials. I was just showing Master Dong that the so-called Huairou is not applicable to everyone. I just cursed. After a few words from Master Dong, Master Dong hated me in his heart. If he wanted His Majesty to punish me, he refused to be tender. What the Koreans did to me, Da Song, was a thousand times worse than I just scolded Master Dong. Bai, if my Dasong wants to implement what Dong Dasong said to the Korean people and let them ask for what they want in my Dasong, then it is no matter how bad or bad, and there will be endless suffering!"

"Oh, then tell me, what are the troubles of my great Song Huairou and Goryeo?" Song Shenzong asked directly.

Dong Dunyi was gasping for breath by Xia Ping'an beside him, holding one hand on his chest, staring at Xia Ping'an viciously.

"If the other party is a person, you can be gentle. If the other party is a white-eyed wolf with poison on his teeth and has an unpredictable heart, no matter how gentle you are, it will only make the other party laugh at me. Da Song is pedantic and incompetent. Goryeo will only surrender to the majesty of the swordsman. But I don’t know that there is kindness and righteousness in the world. It is a sordid generation. It is absolutely unbelievable. This time, Goryeo sent an envoy to my Dasong. On the surface, he wanted to make friends with me. It’s not good for my Dasong. The Goryeo messengers came to my Dasong. They must have been allowed by the Liao State to spy on my Dasong’s futility. If we sell those books to Goryeo, the Liao people will get my Dasong’s in no time. These books..."

"Why is Master Su so sure that the Goryeo envoy was sent by the Liao people?"

"I have read the list of books that the Koreans want to buy. The list of books is full of my Da Song Buzhen, Yin and Yang, calendar, arithmetic, arithmetic, military books, edicts, current affairs, border machines, geography and other types of books. According to the merchant’s response, some Korean merchants also quietly bought books at various ports before, and all the books purchased by Koreans would be published in Liao in a blink of an eye. You can see in Liao that Korea’s name is Mu Yi Lai Chao Wo Da Song, in fact, want to come to profit, save his original heart, and eventually be used by Liao. What is it? Liao is enough to control his death, but I can’t do it. Now the messenger comes, in addition to wanting to buy all kinds of books, along the way It is a picture of my great Song mountains and rivers victorious, garrisoned guards, peeking at the reality, is there any kindness? And after the investigation by the Ministry of Ritual, among the envoys of Korea, there are hidden Khitan meticulous works..."

Hearing Su Shi’s words, Song Shenzong’s face suddenly became serious. Song Shenzong is also a promising king. He also has a score in his heart for those Goryeos, although those from Shang Shusheng spoke well and drew The pie is very beautiful, I want to combine with Goryeo to make Liao, but...

Dong Dunyi gasped for a moment, and finally grabbed the opportunity to speak next to him, "It is precisely because Goryeo is controlled by the Liao Dynasty at this moment. As long as my Song Dynasty can show gentleness to it, Goryeo will be able to use it for me!"

Xia Pingan looked at Dong Dunyi with a sneer, "Did Master Dong forgot about the old things before Taizong's second expedition to the Liao Dynasty? Back then, Goryeo had not yet surrendered to Liao, and was conferred by the Song Dynasty. Taizong sent envoys to Goryeo to teach Goryeo joined forces to cut the Liao Dynasty, fighting for the heroes of the drum, and investigating this dying captive. At that time, under such a good opportunity, Goryeo was also smart and did not dare to move a piece of grass in the Liao country, which led to the disadvantage of Taizong’s second felling of the Liao. But after retreating, the Liao nation aggressively attacked Goryeo. Goryeo surrendered, took the name of the Liao nation, and made the Liao nation its sovereign. This is something that Korea did not dare to do when it was conferred by the Song Dynasty. Now they are in the Liao nation. Under the cavalry swordsmen, they lingered and became the lackeys of the Liao people. Master Dong and Shang Shusheng wanted to unite with Goryeo again to control the Liao. Isn’t it funny? Back..."

Dong Dunyi was speechless for a moment, and then arguably retorted, "This time the Korean envoys came to my Dasong, they wanted to lend the Queen Mother the opportunity to celebrate her birthday, and to test whether they could unite with my Dasong. They also prepared a birthday gift for the Queen Mother. How can Master Su say that those Goryeo envoys have different intentions?"

Xia Ping’an said, “The time that the Korean envoys gave us to watch is Jiazi calendar, not Song calendar. Those Koreans just like to work in such small places, sneak in and take humbleness as cleverness, and treat me very much in their hearts. Song Wu has the slightest respect. Isn't this wrong? How can we make those Koreans do what they want?"

Dong Dunyi was speechless again, defending, "The birthday gift prepared by the Korean envoy is always true, I heard that it is two big golden pagodas, this shows his sincerity!"

"Officials, this is the place where the Koreans are treacherous. The golden pagodas that the Koreans gave are just two small towers in boxes. The Koreans know that once we accept their so-called birthday gifts. The court’s return gift is ten times as much as their birthday gift. They must have made a lot of money, plus the cost of receiving Korean envoys along the way, no less than hundreds of thousands. Playthings, I just want to exchange my Da Song’s most precious classics, and make a lot of money. All these things will flow into the pockets of the Khitan people in a blink of an eye. For those Golies, we can only speak prestige. I can’t say yes..."

Dong Dunyi was dumbfounded by Xia Pingan, and had nothing to say.

"The official family, I have the wealth of the great Song Dynasty, and the official family is rich in the whole world. There are no rare treasures in the palace, a little gadget of the Korean people, what is so strange? If it is really sent, the things from the Koreans will be answered by the Ai family. Don’t forget it, your Majesty must not lose sight of it~www.readwn.com~ let the tricks of the Koreans succeed and ruin the affairs of the country..." As soon as the words fell, a woman with great demeanor walked slowly into the hall with the support of several court ladies and eunuchs.

Song Shenzong hurriedly got up from sitting up, and went to the hand-in-hand ceremony.

"I have seen the Empress Dowager..." Dong Dunyi and Xia Ping'an hurriedly saluted.

The woman who came in was the Empress Dowager of the Great Song Kingdom and one of Su Shi's iron fans.

"In the harem, the Ae family heard that those Koreans were coming to congratulate Ae’s family, and they also caused some troubles. I was about to come over and tell the officials that they should not let the Koreans succeed because they wished me a birthday. It’s cheap to go. I don’t care about things from Korean people. The Aijia thinks that Master Su is right. The books of our Song Dynasty are full of the wisdom of our predecessors. Don’t be stolen by those Koreans and given to the Khitan people. , How is it different from a rival..."

After hearing these words, Xia Ping'an quietly gave the empress dowager a thumbs up to Da Song...
