Chapter 61 Bonus Brothers
The whole king of the twelfth lunar month is very busy. Since Wang has his own mansion in the capital, Yuan Ze, Li Gefei and Zhong Pin, etc., he occasionally come to play with Wang, and these people have brought some of their friends to Wang. There are also some ministers and disciples, some of whom they have seen at the chrysanthemum banquet and have also visited through some relationships.
This is not because the king is rich. None of the children of these officials are short of money. Among them, there are those who sincerely make friends with the king, and some of them are nothing more than seeing the king's side repeatedly rewarded and favored by Renzong's admiration. Wang Bing's own house burned "incense cakes", but his friends who came, Wang Bing gave one or two "brantly".
Zhang Yi, Lu Shenyan and others came, and Wang side even introduced Zhang Yi to everyone, saying that he was a teacher. Zhang Yi was very happy to see that Wang was like this. Hearing that Zhang Yi came to the capital to live in the king's house, and many friends from the business and friends at the gate of the government office came to visit Zhang Yi, Zhang Yi also introduced Wang's side to these people and said that he had accepted a closed disciple.
Situ, Sima and Sikong, who are in charge of salt and iron, the household department, have a large number of officials, and their positions are uneven. Wang has been focusing on Di Qing's affairs. After that, he was outside the capital for more than a year, and many new faces suddenly appeared in front of him.
The king separated the internal and external affairs. Lu Shenyan and his wife took care of the affairs in the house. Naturally, it was better to have Xiao Lu's helper's house. There were many people who often come and went to the family, and they asked Xiaolu to find some people to find some people, and finally dealt with the entertainment. Seeing that there was still time, Wang Zong asked Yu Danian and Yin Shijie to return to Jincheng for the Spring Festival. He told him to build a house in Tangjia Village at the beginning of the spring. If he was not in the capital, he would ask Xiaolu to support him wherever he had money.
After the arrangement of these two people, it was He Li Bo. To tell the truth, Wang didn't want He Li Bo to leave. Originally, he didn't feel anything. Now suddenly there are so many things that people can't move. After all, Yin Shijie and Yu Danian have just been using it for a short time. Although they are also honest and diligent people, after all, they don't see a lot on the market.
I don't want to give up, but I always have to do what I promised others. Wang Bian specially found out his spare time and invited He Liba alone. He also took out two ingots of gold (about thirty taels) and five hundred taels of silver and gave them to Hori bowl. He Li Bo refused to accept it. Wang pang said, "Although there are not many silver taels, let's spend it for the time being."
He Li Bo still refused. He said that he had never seen so much silver in his life. Can't he use this silver to recruit even if he went back?
Seeing that what He Li Bo said was not serious as a joke, he asked him why. He Li Bo said, "If I go back to fight against Liao for the people of the clan, and if I take this money, I will help Song fight Liao."
The king laughed and said, "What you received is my silver, not the silver of the court, and I am not an official of the imperial court now. You and I are brothers. Even for the sake of Lord Di, I should help my brother.
He Liba hesitated for a moment. It was true that he needed silver. If he wanted to resist, he would not spend money. At least he had to buy some weapons and horses, and then someone would eat horses to feed him, but there was indeed a lot of silver.
He saw that Wang was very sincere. If he pushed it off again, it would be a little disrespectful, so he reached out and took the two ingots of gold and said, "This gold is enough, and it's not easy to carry that silver."
When Wang saw that he received the gold, he said, "In the second year of Zhenzong Jingde, Song and Liao have set the alliance of Tanyuan for nearly 60 years. This alliance will last for a hundred years, and there will be no war on the border. If I have time, I will go to see Brother He.
He Li Bo patted his chest and said, "You are a brother. If anything happens, you must go through fire and water."
When Wang saw He Liyu say this, he asked, "If the eldest brother revives the clan, what will happen to my Song Dynasty one day?"
He Li Bo said blankly, "Why do you and Miss Yuexia say that? When I came out of Chenzhou that day, Miss Yuexia asked such a brainless question."
Wang Pang frowned and mentioned that he was a little worried about the moon. He Liba smiled. Wang Bong asked, "Brother He, what are you laughing at?"
He Li Bo said with a smile, "As long as our people can fight for a place in Daliao, it will be enough for our people to live and work in peace and contentment. It's so far away from you that you can really think I can be the emperor of Liao?"
The king smiled bitterly in his heart, not only to be an emperor. Wang sometimes thinks that it would be great if he didn't know who he was. He Libo was loyal to Lord Di and regarded himself as a brother. He really wanted to just go back to Daliao, so that history might have been changed by himself.
But if history can really be changed by yourself, then 2012 will not be the same as before. Even if He Li's bowl is detained now, there will be a person with the same name and surname who will do the same thing.
Seeing that Wang's side didn't say anything, He Liwa said, "Okay, anyway, I will definitely not fight with the Song Dynasty when I am the Lord of Liao, and I won't let my son fight." After saying that, he laughed.
Seeing this, Wang just had a sentence in his mouth and wanted to ask He Li Bo, what about his grandson? Before asking, He Liba suddenly stopped laughing and said to Wang.
"Today, my younger brother treated me so well that I have been puzzled. On that day, I happened to hear you and Lord Zhang Zai talking about the sixteen states of Yanyun and the white stone. I didn't hear it sincerely, but I always feel that something happened, as if I was hiding it from my brother"
Wang was stunned and smiled: "Brother He's words are not hidden from me, but it's like my younger brother's secret from my eldest brother."
He Liba quickly waved his hand and said, "I heard it without telling you"
When Wang saw him say this, he asked, "Then explain, what did you hear from me?"
He Liyu said, "Well, you can do whatever you want when you hear what the white stone is said, and what the white stone is in Yanyunzhou"
Wang nodded. He knew that He Liba would not hide it from him, so he said, "It's true that Lord Zhang Zai talked to me about this matter and said something strange."
He Li Bo said, "If you don't say anything, I know,"
Wang was puzzled but still looked at him calmly and said with a smile, "I can't hide anything from Brother He."
He was afraid that He Li Bo would see the flash of his words, so he deliberately drank wine to cover it up. He Liyu didn't look at him and said to himself, "I have heard why the Empress Dowager Xiao attacked the State of Song at the beginning."
When he saw Wang looking at him, he said, "You usually tell me stories, and I will also tell you today."
While eating and chatting, the two listened to He Liwa say, "Do you know why Empress Dowager Xiao wanted to seize the sixteen states of Yanyun?"
"You can tell me and I'll listen"
"The gains and losses of the sixteen states of Yanyun are related to the safety of a generation. The seven prefectures of You, Ji, Ying, Mo, Zhuo, Tan and Shun of these 16 prefectures are called "Mountain front" in the southeast of the northern branch of Taihang Mountain, and the rest of the Kyushu are called "Mountain" in the northwest of the mountain. Today, the Great Wall is divided from the east to the southwest of Yongguan, stretching from the Taihang ridge to the west of Shuozhou and the Great Wall. This is the inner Great Wall. After the loss of the "mountain" in the Central Plains, there is still Yanmen Guanzhai in the inner Great Wall to defend. If the "front of the mountain" is lost, the Hebei fenari will be withdrawn, and the cavalry of Khitan can go straight to the river along the flat plain south of the articium. Therefore, the Central Plains Dynasty began a war with Liao to compete for the sixteen states of Yanyun from the Later Zhou Chairong. After the alliance of Qianyuan, trade relations and non-governmental exchanges were carried out between the two countries of Song and Liao. Only then can I get out of Liao and come to the Song Dynasty smoothly. At that time, there were also legends in Jizhou. It was really a coincidence. It seemed that Baishi could only be regarded as ancient and modern things. At that time, I also inquired about it, but it was just a rumor.
"Later, when we were in Yanzhou, I heard that Xixia got the white stone god. I don't know if this white stone god is the white stone."
When Wang heard it, he noticed that Xixia said that the white stone god was talking about the white stone. At that time, he only thought about seeing the white stone god suspected to be under the moon, because the moon also carried white jade.
He Li Bo looked at him and asked, "Hey, have you heard me?"
Wang replied, "Of course, I will listen. When I go to Jianzhou to do a tea business, I will arrange the coal business in Jincheng next year in Xixia."
He Li Bo nodded: "Then I'll go back to my hometown first, and then I'll meet you in Xixia. I also want to see the white stone. Maybe there is this stone that can help our people.
Wang Zanxin said that He Li's heart was very angry. Anyway, I can't go on. I drank a lot of this wine and talked about it, so I found a topic to change the matter.
Lu Shenyan finished arranging Yin Shijie and Yu Danian's journey. When he came back, he saw that the two were still talking, and heard that He Libo was leaving. He was very reluctant. Xiao Lu said to Wang, "Miss Rouer was sent back to the master and wife for help by you. If Brother He wants to leave again, I will be alone.
He Liwa looked at him and said, "You have a rouge tiger, but it makes people worried." I want to say a few words, but I'm afraid of arousing the king's thoughts.
The next day, He Libo was just sent away. Wang Anshi's house sent a family member to say that Lord Wang asked the prince to come over and talk.
Wang's side has rarely had time to go to Wang Anshi and Lord Bao's house since he returned to the capital. He has been busy socializing for most of the month. He was so busy that one person looked a little worried. This is Wang Anshi.
Wang Anshi called Wang and Yuan Ze and told them not to delay their studies. Wang knew that Yuan Ze had always worked hard, which was said to himself. Wang Anshi will not say too much. He knows that socializing in officialdom is indispensable, and there are many things in the family this year: Mrs. Wu is happy again; Wang Anshi's two younger brothers, Wang Anli, Wang Anguo came to the capital; he has a lot of social activities in his family, but he can't care about Wang's side. I had to tell the king not to delay his studies or something like that.
The two brothers next to Wang came out of Wang Anshi's study. The two went to visit Mrs. Wu during pregnancy. Yuan Ze asked about the book boy. It turned out that Yuanze's book boy was playful and had an affair with the maid in the house. Yuanze didn't like the book boy, so he asked him to choose a book boy. I didn't like it very much, so I entrusted it to the king. And he said, "If you want to find a book boy, you must choose a better one than Brother Zizhan."
When Wang heard him say for the first time, he asked, "What about the book boy of Su Zizhan (Su Shi)?"
Yuan Ze said, "You have been out for more than half a year and I don't know. Zi Zhan just bought a little book boy. He is nearly 11 years old, but he is clever."
Wang sang smiled and said, "Then I'll find one for you who is more obedient and easy to learn."
The two of them said that they had already walked to Mrs. Wu's door. Rouer came out of the room. When she saw Wang's side, she blushed slightly and saluted the two brothers and said, "Today, Madam went to serve incense. When she came back, she was a little tired and just had a rest. How about you sit in the hall first? I'll prepare some snacks for you."
Seeing this, Wang said that he would come back another day. Anyway, it was almost a family banquet. He heard that this lady was always tired during this period and often slept for a long time.
When she was about to turn around and go back to the house, Rouer stopped him and said, "There is something important. I saw Miss Yuexia today, but she didn't recognize me."
