Chapter 1101: Case Judgment, Fan Family Father and Son
"If these conditions of Shen Tang are fulfilled, then there will really be no more war with Dali Kingdom."
Zhang Jun said slowly, "It's just that I'm afraid Dali will not agree!"
"Dali is very powerful. The most important reason why it took the initiative to seek peace this time is that Shen Tang suppressed Southern Xinjiang and used the power of Southern Xinjiang to cause civil strife in Dali.
Once the Dali Kingdom frees up its hands, it will definitely suppress the domestic unrest as soon as possible! How can they be willing to surrender by then?"
Zhao Shen suppressed the admiration on his face and nodded with some regret.
If we can really take this opportunity to make Dali a vassal state, it will not only ensure the security of the southwest border, but also give the Song Dynasty more deterrence to the southern states!
Unfortunately, as Zhang Jun said, it may be impossible to achieve the goal.
"How do you think Aiqing should handle the peace talks with Dali?"
Zhao Shen asked in a condensed voice.
Zhang Jun thought for a long time and suddenly said, "Your Majesty, I have an idea, I don't know if it is suitable!"
"If we hold peace talks with Dali in Lin'an, whether we send officials from the Ministry of Rites or other officials, the result of the peace talks may not necessarily satisfy His Majesty! After all, not everyone has the same thoughts as Your Majesty.
So, since peace talks are not possible in Lin'an, why doesn't Your Majesty choose a suitable mission to go to Dali for peace talks?"
"Dali's intention to have peace talks is extremely clear. In this way, there is nothing wrong with having peace talks in Dali! As long as the envoys selected by His Majesty can understand His Majesty's intentions, there will be fewer constraints.
As long as the peace talks are over and letters of credence are signed, it doesn’t matter what opinions and views the court has!”
After hearing Zhang Jun's words, Zhao Shen couldn't help but his eyes lit up!
Indeed, it is definitely not easy to unify the thoughts of the entire imperial court, but it is not difficult to send a mission that understands what you mean!
"Who does love think it is appropriate to send as its messenger?
I’m afraid it’s not easy for an idle person to achieve my goal!”
Zhang Jun smiled softly, pointed to the memorial in Zhao Shen's hand and said, "Your Majesty, there is already a most suitable candidate here who has come to my door. As long as I send him, why worry about the outcome of the peace talks?" Is the Song Dynasty unfavorable?
The peace talks with the Kingdom of Jin back then were much more complicated than the current situation. Now that I, the Song Dynasty, have taken the initiative, if this guy can't get a suitable result, even the old minister won't do it!"
"You mean Shen Tang!"
Zhao Shen asked in surprise.
"Your Majesty, apart from Shen Tang, which one of the civil and military officials of the Song Dynasty can meet your Majesty's wishes?"
Zhang Jun asked with a smile.
"good!"
Zhao Shen slapped his hand hard and said, "What Ai Qing said is true! Tomorrow, I will immediately issue an order to Shen Tang, using Shen Tang as the official envoy to go to Dali Kingdom and be fully responsible for the peace talks!"
Shen Tang didn't know that although he was far away in Chengdu, His Majesty the Emperor had once again assigned him a task!
As the weather gets warmer, the disaster on the entire Northwest Fifth Road has basically passed, and new farming has begun. Although the floods that lasted for several months have been greatly alleviated under Shen Tang's inspection, the damage to the people is still there. Tens of thousands of people died in it.
The dead are dead, and the living will continue to live. Whether they are lucky or sad, the people do not have much choice!
Most of the people have returned to their hometowns to settle down, and some people have been recruited by the government to clean rivers and build dams! Hope is everyone's confidence and the foundation for everyone to continue to survive!
During Shen Tang's inspection, hundreds of officials at all levels were punished. In addition, due to the two assassinations, the eyes of various departments in the imperial court were also focused on it. Although the Northwest Fifth Road was in floods for a while, But it seems that Haiyanhe is clear, and there are basically few officials suppressing the common people!
On this day, several prison cars were walking slowly on the streets of Chengdu Prefecture! The murder case that occurred in the Shao family shop was already clear under Lu Feng’s detailed investigation. Among them, the two boys who were bribed by the Shao family restaurant and Wang Sanshi The son, including several minor officials in the county government who participated in this matter and acted secretly, were all arrested and questioned!
However, this incident did not involve Fan Yongchang after all. The person behind the incident confessed by these people was a county government official, and the main responsibility fell on this government official.
According to his confession, it was because when he went to the Shaojia Restaurant for dinner, the Shaojia Restaurant did not treat him well and disgraced him. Therefore, he held a grudge. This time he found an opportunity and bribed the waiter in the restaurant and Wang Sanshi's second son. , caused this disaster!
All the confessions and confessions should be clear, and the people can be considered to know the inside story.
Sometimes, it doesn't matter what the truth is. What's important is to give everyone a proper explanation! Shen Tang never thought about using this matter to bring down the Fan family, let alone directly take down Fan Yongchang and punish him! Now, It's not yet time to push these two families to a dead end.
And with the conclusion of this lawsuit, Fan Yongchang's affairs against the Shao family business had to come to an end!
All his little tricks were discovered, and during this period, his business was almost destroyed. Whether it was in the Song Dynasty or in the Northern Kingdom of Jin, and even other business channels were almost cut off. Most of the time, but faced with this situation, Fan Yongchang could only grit his teeth and swallow the bitter pill.
In the Fan family mansion, father and son Fan Zhize and Fan Yongchang were sitting opposite each other!
Fan Zhize looked indifferent, but Fan Yongchang's face was full of gloom!
"This time, do you know how powerful Shen Tang is?"
Fan Zhize said calmly.
Fan Yongchang's expression changed for a moment. He wanted to refute, but it was indeed the case!
"Actually, from the very beginning, I knew this would be the result! Not only did I know it, but the head of the Wang family also knew it."
"Father!"
Fan Yongchang's face was full of astonishment, "Since you know it, why do you let me do it?
This time, our business loss reached almost 30%, and the Wang family’s business also lost more than 25%! Moreover, many relationship networks were directly cut off..."
Fan Zhize smiled and said, "My Fan family has lost a lot of business and money! Even if all business is cut off now, my Fan family can still be a rich man for three generations! However, taking this opportunity to teach you a lesson is even more important." for important.
If you want to attack someone, you must first know the opponent's background and strength. Only in this way can you be invincible. Moreover, even if you are absolutely sure, you cannot go into battle personally unless it is at the last moment!"
