Chapter 65 Handle 2
As soon as the old Duke Wang De finished speaking, Renzong ordered the eunuch of Si Dian to take out the painting of the airship dedicated to him the day before yesterday from the brocade box, and asked Liu Liufu, the special envoy of Liaoning, to take a look and open his eyes.
After a piece of incense, Liu Liufu finished reading the painting and respectfully returned it to the eunuch of Si Dian. Subsequently, Chao Renzong saluted deeply and then said, "Your Majesty, I was very surprised to see the airship ministers of the Song Dynasty today. However, there are also strange people and righteous craftsmen in Liao. It must not be difficult to make this flying thing."
Renzong smiled loudly and said, "Yes, there are many capable people in Liaoning. This flying airship may also be built, but..."
Renzong stopped here and looked down. He found that the ministers were staring at him. After clearing his throat, he continued to say, "But I haven't seen you have an airship in Liao"
Liu Liu Liufu was shocked and shouted that it was not good. I had to think of a countermeasure quickly. Liu Liu Liufu thought of a sentence and asked quickly, "Your Majesty, please forgive me for my knowledge. I want to ask your majesty to be kind to me and let me see the airship."
Renzong answered without thinking, "Okay, it's accurate"
Next, Liu Liufu made an appointment with Renzong. Renzong said that he would tell you tomorrow when it was arranged. Liu Liufu thanked him and went out of the hall and went back to the Duting Post Hall.
Looking at Liu Liufu leaving the Wende Hall, Renzong was a little tired. After the fall of the dynasty, he named Fubi and Wang De to go to the imperial study. He had something to ask.
In the imperial study, Renzong retired from the court and changed into an apricot-yellow long coat. After taking out a yellowed ancient book from the bookshelf, he came to the bookcase and sat down. After looking through a few pages, the fruit box sent by the imperial dining room arrived.
After the fruit box was presented, it was placed in the place near Renzong. Renzong raised his hand, and the eunuch who passed the meal retreated without saying a word.
After a moment, Emperor Renzong took out a preserve and put it in his mouth. He turned over a few pages and saw an interesting place. He was about to laugh. He only listened to the little eunuch outside the door singing and saying, "Lord Duke of Lu and Mr. Hanlin, please see Your Majesty"
Renzong put down the book, leaned his back on the dragon chair and replied, "Let the rich come first"
After the little eunuch heard the order, he saluted Fubi, "Your Excellency, please"
After returning the gift, Fu Bi walked past Wang De, the Duke of Lu, and entered the imperial study.
In the imperial study.
After giving the salute of the king and minister, Fu Bi got up and replied.
Renzong asked unhappily, "Fu Aiqing, have you ever mentioned to anyone after returning to Beijing that the flying thing you have seen in Luzhou is the airship"
Fubi hurriedly replied, "I haven't mentioned it to anyone. On the day I returned to Beijing, I followed Eunuch Li directly to the Wende Hall. At that time, I reported to your majesty about the Luzhou airship."
Renzong was a little relieved and then asked, "In this case, why is the Duke of Lu more detailed than you know?"
Fu Bi replied puzzledly, "I don't know this minister. Maybe the Duke of Lu heard about the airship and felt that this thing can be used in other places. As the Duke of China said today, if you put the airship on the border gate, you can not only detect the enemy's movements in advance, but also fight to kill the enemy, and even directly take the enemy's nest."
Renzong nodded, "So, so it is. How did the old prince in the palace know more than me today? It turned out that the old prince thought about it himself. It seems that I was too much consideration. By the way, Fu Aiqing, I promised Liu Liufu, the special envoy of Liaoning, to see the airship built by Zhao Ze. Go and ask Zhao Ze and ask him to drive the airship from Luzhou. Jingshi, I want to ask Liu Liufu to know that I'm not easy to bully."
"I obey the order" Fu Bi received the order and asked again, "Your Majesty, where should this thing be placed after coming to the capital? Who will take care of it? Please decide."
Renzong thought for a moment, "Let's hand it over to Kaifeng Mansion for the time being. Let's choose the location... By the way, let it go of Kaifeng Mansion."
Hearing Renzong's decree, Fu Bi had a heart and then said, "Your Majesty, since this is the case, I will do this matter immediately. Please excuse me to leave first."
Renzong nodded and acquiesced. When Fong left the imperial study, Renzong called Wang De, the Duke of Lu, to come in.
When Wang Deyu walked into the imperial study, Renzong was in a much better mood and asked someone to show his seat to the old prince. Wang Deyong refused three times before he barely sat down, but he still straightened up and returned to Renzong's words.
"The Duke knows what I'm calling you to do today," Renzong asked gently.
"Please forgive the old minister for his ignorance. The old minister doesn't know what your majesty is calling the old minister." Wang De replied with a straight voice.
"This matter is also related to Fu Aiqing. I have already asked Fu Aiqing. Now I want to ask the old prince. I don't know how the old prince knows about the Luzhou airship. Why haven't I heard Fu Aiqing mention it? Just like what the old prince said in the palace today, I'm confused."
As soon as Renzong said the words, Wang De sweated coldly and said that your majesty was really wise. Your majesty had only been mentioned twice about the Luzhou airship. Today, what he held in his heart was heard by your majesty. It seems that it is better to make it clear today, otherwise I really don't know what your majesty will think.
Thinking of this, Wang De explained to Renzong the idea that suddenly emerged a month ago, and then he also said that he sent his confidant family to Luzhou to secretly investigate Zhao Ze. Renzong couldn't help nodding after hearing this. Although he didn't agree with the old Duke's approach, he appreciated the result very much.
"Yeah, after listening to the words of the old Duke, I really benefited a lot," Renzong replied with appreciation.
"This is what the old minister should do. The old minister also wants to ask his majesty for not being able to make it clear to his majesty as soon as possible." Wang Deyi suddenly got up and fell to the ground.
Renzong quickly helped Wang Deyong up. "The old prince is serious. The prince is dedicated to doing things for me. I'm so happy that I can't blame the prince. Next time the prince should pay attention to it."
"The old minister thanked His Majesty for forgiving Weichen." Wang Dezong worshipped Renzong again.
"Okay, okay, let's not be polite anymore. I have opened my heart knot today. I just wait for Fu Bi to arrange the airship made by Zhao Ze to enter Beijing. At that time, I will definitely let the Liao people see the power of my Song Dynasty."
When Renzong said this, his eyes seemed to ignite a blazing flame. Even Wang De could feel the expectation in Renzong's words. Originally, he wanted to remind His Majesty that Zhao Ze's origin was unknown and he should be cautious. However, looking at Renzong's mood today, Wang De knew that whether it was good or bad words, he could not finish it at once. Even if you want to say it, it depends on the situation. Today, let's talk to your majesty another day.
